Boomharp

The Boomharp, or boomerang harmonica, is a musical instrument and weapon, originally thought to be of old Earth origins.

True Origin
In the aftermath of all loyal Los Lobos subjects being banished into deep space, the ship finally landed on a planet in the Andromeda galaxy. In attempting to rebuild civilization, Rory Killian and his wife Erin combined a harmonica with a boomerang. The original intention was to revitalize love for music amongst the inhabitants, but as the people gradually mutated and morphed into the Conglomerate, it came to be viewed less a tool of music, and more as an offensive weapon.

When the Conglomerate returned to the Snickers galaxy and conquered it, they brought the boomharp with them. Over time the reverse of the process happened, as the human race began to appreciate the boomharp as a musical instrument, and less as a weapon (though it could still be used as such).

The subsequent musical genre, boomharp ska, came to be a popular favorite among the human youth during the Conglomerate occupation.
