170 bars at 155 BPM -- fast, and 4:23 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bar 1, silence through bars 2-5, toms through bars 6-8, hi-hat through bars 9-57, ride through bars 58-59 and snare through bars 60-74, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25-27, 29-31 and 42-44, and 13 more places -- 26.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

155 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 33 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
