Today, a week after moving into my new house, I'm seriously considering suing the previous occupant. He failed to mention how the neighbor has his own band and rehearses every other day until 2am. Their music is so bad, it sounds like the wailing of a cat being tortured to death. FML

If it's so loud that you can hear from the next house, maybe you can call the police for a noise violation...? That's a thing, right?

Even calling the cops may not work in some areas due to their requirements on how many decibels the sound is (~80). We've tried doing this for a neighbor's dog that constantly barks all night- they couldn't do shit. Best thing is to either confront them or earplugs

Call the police and file a disturbing the peace report. Isn't there some law where house occupants have to tone down the noise after a certain time of night??

Make friends with a military person. Borrow a focused EMP:-) Boom. Silence...

Would it have been ok if the band was good?

Yes. Because then you wouldn't mind being kept up by it. Good music can become white noise, too.

The judge will just laugh you off and say file a council complaint

Remind them at every possible opportunity that they suck, and blast Van Halen all hours of the day.

Maybe you need to get in touch with the other FMLer's dad who does a great Simon Cowell impression.

Just call the cops with a noise complaint. Simple.

That reminds me of a scene from a tv show my younger brother watches on Disney.... Ummm what's it called?

Call the cops for a noise complaint.
