A teenage heavy metal band from Cornwall had a letter of support from rock legend and former member of Nirvana Dave Grohl who supported their pleas to be allowed to practice their music in their garage.
The involvement of such a high profile figure in the music industry should make the local council think again about allowing the band to continue to make music. If it doesn’t, the issue does at least highlight how difficult it can be to insulate your home in a way that prevents noise from escaping and bothering your neighbours.
Aspiring musicians can often be the cause of noise complaints and lack of any space to practice can put people off if they are unable to get in some regular practice. Finding that space is increasingly difficult these days, as houses are built closer together but there is plenty you can do to minimise noise as advice on the Foo Fighters website suggests.
However some of the advice sounds like it could make matters worse for the people trying to play music inside. Fulling walls with sand and stacking mattresses against the door may not be the best solutions.
