I need help urgently. I'm living in an apartment and the neighbour above plays super-loud deep bass music and makes lots of other annoying loud hammering noises. It is driving me insane. Earplugs don't work. Loud fans don't work. Nothing blocks the noise. It has been going on for months.

I went upstairs and politely asked him to turn down the bass (not even the volume, just the bass) and told him it was shaking my apartment. He instantly became a total ass and I had to use all my effort to avoid pounding him and getting charged with assault. When I left, he even turned it up.

I called the police and they said my best option was for me to move out! They said they'd send an officer around to ask him to turn it down. I waited 6 hours and nobody came. He finally turned off the music at 3:00AM. Even if the police did come, he'd probably turn it back up when they left.

I need to find a way to stop the jerk. Unfortunately in Canada we have laws against murder, so that's out. I can't think of a way to stop him without me ending up in jail or fined in court. I have no mafia connections that could help. What can I do? What can I do???

HELP!
