as...as

Hello,
I'm wondering if this sentence structure is correct:
ex: As loud as the music is, as annoyed as I get by it.

Can I use two "as....as" sentences in a row? If not what other structure should I have used?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply nagariya. But I was actually wondering if it could be used like in the sentence I wrote: "As loud as the music is, as annoyed as I get by it" where it means something like "The louder the music gets, the more annoyed I get by it"

The only thing I can think of is "As loud as the music is, is as annoyed as I will get by it. I feel certain that it needs that extra "is" to be correct.

This sentence is fine.
As loud as the music is, as annoyed as I get by it.
This one is not correct. Use Jim's version instead.
