150 bars at 215 BPM -- fast, and 2:47 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

hi-hat through bars 1-6, silence through bars 7-9, ride through bars 10-24, kick and crashes through bars 25-28, hi-hat through bars 29-80 and ride through bars 81-90, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 29-32, 37-39 and 45-47, and 6 more places -- 30.8% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
