Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

Side Effects may include but are not limited to profuse bleeding & violent defecation

Essentially not noticeably different than an average round of Glenn Passaic...

2oz Glen Passaic
juice of 1 lime
ginger beer
a surly mule
In a tin cup, combine Glen Passaic and lime. Add ice, and top with ginger beer. Cajole mule into delivering a kick in the head; this softens the blow of the Glen Passaic to come. (Hint: tell the mule it's not even rented, but a previously totalled write-off mule sold at auction. This makes them extra surly.)

If (& it is an If of whatever dimensions...) - one accepts the proposition of the book 'This Is Your Brain On Music' that a major contour of Music's appeal to us is in its balance of Familiarity ('I recognize this as Musical') & Novelty ('yet - I am not bored with it')...

Then there are intentional irritants who excel so completely that the irritation fails maintain transcendence. My example would be The Mentors, whose "Woman from Sodom" is so heinous that I feel ashamed for laughing.
