My bedroom is next to the bathroom.
I can hear everytime someone pees. It's been like that for the last 6 years, and it's finally killing me slowly. I have to turn on music when I hear someone going to the bathroom. And my brother is a inconsiderate asshat who is most likely aware he's too loud but still doesn't give a shit. I have to sleep with headphones on, with rain sound so nobody wakes me up.
What materials are good to cover the wall of my bedroom? Wouldn't want to cover the bathroom's wall because the shower would get whatever material wet.
I'm on a budget as well. Third-world spic here. Hence having the bedroom next to the bathroom everyone uses.
I'm a jr. developer who works from home, so it's like that all the fucking time. It's one of the main reasons I want to get more money and move out to an appartment.
>pic not related but pewds had his office covered like that to absorb the noise he makes, but I need to cancel the noise coming from the bathroom

stuff keeping noise in a room works to keep it out as well. the same foam material will work great, or since you're thirdworld, cardboard egg cartons work to a degree.

It doesn't absorb the noise, it absorbs frequencies, so no bass buildup or echo or tinny sounds, it has a better chance of making the sounds more pleasing to the ear than blocking them altogether. I've spent much time in many studios, unless you have double thickness walls with air gaps and dampening material on contact surfaces you'll still get a decent amount of sound. For the amount that stuff costs compared how likely it is to solve your problems. No, egg cartons don't work, they have a minor impact on echo if placed properly, but a picture frame would to.
