The concept is identical, but depending on the execution it can be quite different.
This like saying that classical music is the same as pop/rock just because they are both music that entertains people, some people hate classical music, other's hate pop/rock.
I would like to know how often these different calls to prayer is being played and how long each call takes, as well as how loud they both are in comparison.
The human voice is infinitely more annoying than the most irritating musical instrument. Or construction equipment for that matter.
I'd definitely argue the local church bells here are WAY worse than your typical muslim prayer call. They have some problem with the bells they don't seem to bother to fix, so they'll randomly ring around midday with agonizing, full force cacophony that can last over 5 minutes. It's not music in any form and it's so loud you can hear it even indoors far away, I call it the bells of hell
