castrophany 

A word who's origins are rooted in a Gorillaz song entitled Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head.

Although the word has never been defined, it is guessed (by vitrue of word roots and context clues) to mean terrible sounds of catastrophic proportions.
And then came a sound. Distant first, it grew into castrophany so immense it could be heard far away in space.
