To achieve any meaningful soundproofing you have to incorporate a layer of resilience to anything you add to a party wall. Sticking acoustic plasterboard direct to the wall will make very little difference to your soundproofing.
A number of options for party wall soundproofing are available from the very slim line stick on solutions to the thicker and more effective independent stud structures. We are frequently asked if resilient bars or GenieClip® can be added direct to a party wall to save on space.
In the case of resilient bars, this does not seem to work, while GenieClips do seem to work well when attached direct to a solid party wall. We believe this is due to the much higher level of resilience that the GenieClip incorporates. The vibrations of sound transmission are absorbed much more effectively with rubber than with the metal of resilient bars. In effect the mass of the new soundproofing surface that you are adding is much better isolated than is the case with resilient bars.
