Tumbacoco

Large, high-powered speaker systems known for extreme volume that carries over long distances. They are commonly used by politicians during campaigns, for broadcasting party announcements, or by people wanting to blast music while hanging out with friends. (The name literally means coconut-feller, implying the sound is strong enough to knock coconuts off a tree).

The noise from that Tumbacoco is so loud and powerful it will deafen you and make your kidneys rattle.
