The raucous Brooklyn quartet follows up its celebrated debut with an icy, crisp album that’s strikingly honest about self-consciousness in the face of desire. Pirouette is strikingly honest about its own self-consciousness. The Brooklyn quartet’s 2023 album, Dogsbody, stormed hot out of the gate, sending lyrics about gay abjection flailing over squalls of cathartic noise.
Now firmly established, Model/Actriz follows with an album deeply concerned with being seen and calibrating one’s image in service of pursuing desire. Rather than raucous and eruptive, the music is now icy, clipped, and clean, a step away from Einstürzende Neubauten and toward Crystal Castles and Circus-era Britney. It still has teeth, but they are oh-so-white.
