PROFILE: Is it possible to look sexy in the bathroom? Ask the Strokes and you’ll get one (white powdered) answer, but ask Model/Actriz while they’re standing in an actively visited porta-potty in a Brooklyn park and they probably won’t agree. Still, fans and critics the world over are united in their response to Model/Actriz, a furious, noise-inflected, and slithering take on dance-punk, using words like “tense,” “powerful,” “chaotic,” and “sexual” to describe the band’s debut, Dogsbody. And after some light polling of quartet, all but one of those descriptors work for their time in the porta-potty. Can you guess which doesn’t?
