235 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 5:13 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

kick and crashes through bar 1, silence through bars 2-15, ride through bars 16-26, snare through bars 27-32, toms through bars 33-36 and snare through bars 37-121, and 5 more changes after that.
