132 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 3:18 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-4, snare through bars 5-10, toms through bars 11-12, hi-hat through bars 13-18, snare through bars 19-50 and toms through bars 51-52, and 2 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 29-31, 33-35 and 38-39, and 9 more places -- 20% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

160 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.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

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