“I Am Magically Happening!�, the first full-length from Washington, DC’s The Alphabetical Order shows a great deal of DC indie influence, with hints of Fugazi and Jawbox skating across the soundscape. The album is raw and lo-fi, and the songwriting employs ambitious tactics—odd time signatures, unexpected key changes, and non-traditional structure are littered across the 10 tracks. Still, the Order’s love of hooks cannot be muted—�Submarines� boasts a sing-along chorus and the anthemic “Shot From Cannons� tends to get the heads nodding. Lyrically, the writing reflects ruminations into the nature of identity and how the definition of self is distorted in a relationship.
