I just happen to be listening to Diane's show on WFMU right now and she's playing something by a band called Sex Church, a song called "209." I never heard of them, and probably never will again, but it's pretty good. Nothing spectacular but it's a long way from dead end material.
And really, orchestra and score? Elliott Carter's still composing at age 101.
