Writing to the sound of NOISE!

How do we do it I wonder? Writing can be hard enough, but to write whilst constant DIY goes on next door is, I think, extraordinary!
I find myself typing to the constant bangs and drilling, the clanging and more banging, before my teeth a grinding with frustration as I can't remember the words or the flow of the sentences and I reach for the headphones to attempt to drown out the noise.
This in itself can be a strange experience. Which song do I choose? What type of music would go well with writing ? ACDC - fast and furious - can I type that fast! Enya - slow and melodic, but will it drown out the interruptions to my work?
I settled on 30 Seconds to Mars and found the varying styles to be distracting enough without causing my head to explode with frustration! If it continues (which it will) I will try another band and let you know how i got on!
