You might want to check out the sound proof drywall that has the metal and sealer inside. One sheet is equivalent to around 8 sheets for blocking sound transmission.

This kind of sheetrock is more expensive, and a real pain to work with, but I think it is worth the effort in the long run. There is sheetrock like this that doesn't have metal in it, however. It comes in various thicknesses. Worth considering.
I would assume it is a lot cheaper and easier than trying to put up 8 layers of standard sheetrock. It supposedly also seals the nail/screw holes.
The rockwool has great fire insulation properties. For that alone, I don't know why it is not used more in the US.
Here's a link to the special sheetrock
