The 'give it a few weeks' advice is good advice. There could be some life event which would explain the loud music, and if the problem has popped up out of nowhere, there's a good chance it will stop before too long.

 

A few weeks? That's excessive.

Noise is all part of Thailand's culture.

 

Temples are, too.  I never hear loud music at a Wat.

why other Thai neighbours don’t tell the <deleted> to stfu and put up with the noisy

 

While Thais appear very tolerant, what they actually are is well aware that some Thais could kill someone for something as insignificant as complaining about noise.

Move. Even if you complain, they will just pretend to help with politeness and smiles. You are the foreigner. You have no power, no rights. I had the same problem. I moved and now live in a beautiful, quiet, neighborhood. 

And if that suddenly changes for you..........?

People play loud music when they are having sex. Maybe they are mlive or OnlyFans creators?

Is there some point to your post ?

Never hear loud music from a Wat, what about loud noise  ]]]

You're SOL. Excess noise is legally only a problem after a specific time, typically 10:00 pm. 

 

You can move when your lease is up, or leave now and abandon your deposits. Just feel lucky the guy living next to yo doesn't have a chicken. That problem is 3 or 4 am.

Excess noise can be during the day as well depending on the noise

It's not noise, it's music. Might be noise to you but that is irrelevant.

Noise or music or recital or...whatever......they don't have the right (or shouldn't) to expose other people to it.

 

No one needs to play anything so loud that their immediate neighbours can hear it.....no one.

 

Where is the logic, what is the justification for playing something so loudly others are forced to hear it?

My ex brother in law in Thailand raises fighting roosters.    As does some of his neighbors.    When the family visits him and we stay overnight,  I sleep through the roosters crowing.   Might be because part of my childhood I lived with my grandmother and she raised chickens.   Her roosters never woke me up either. 

 

Nowadays I wake up to an alarm on my cell phone with an old phone bell ringing tone.  That works.    I tried a rooster alarm one time.   Slept right through it.

It must have been so painful to go through all that noise before you became numb to it. Maybe you were unlucky and grew up on a farm and was exposed to the ridiculous noise from birth.

Sorry. They do have the right to play music louder than you like. There are generally time restrictions where they can't do it after 10pm for example.

No, it wasn't painful at all, unless it was when  effed up and grandma made me get a switch from the switch tree!  I don't consider spending part of my childhood on a farm unlucky at all.  I was also lucky enough to have lived in three different countries and several different U.S. states before I was 14 years old too.   

 

As to becoming numb to noises, in Vietnam I grew to ignore and sleep through the sound of outgoing mortar rounds being fired by our base mortar team.  But I would wake up immediately when I heard impacting rounds from enemy mortars.   Different sounds and different reactions.   

 

No one slept through the sound of 8 inch or 175 mm guns firing though!!!  We not only heard them firing, we could feel them firing too!

Wow! That must have been a right PITA. If you can't even get a family of BIB to sort it out or even care then what hope have you got?

 

I notice that you used the past tense - DID live there....

 

I moved back to Canada and built a new house backing onto a ravine/protected reserve.

The only thing I hear is the coyotes howling sometime, a natural sound that makes me smile.

One, I doubt that very much.....please prove me wrong with a link.....two, regardless of having the 'right' it is still unacceptable to expose your neighbours unnecessarily to your noise/music........why would you?...what purpose does it serve?

I can easily tell from the noise.....yes.

House opposite had the speakers outside where they spend most of their time, music every night. Mrs asked them to turn it down. Great loss of face how dare we, but they took them in and never spoke to us again, not even a nod, so it's worth asking.
