124 bars at 240 BPM -- fast, and 2:04 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
72 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for.
hi-hat through bars 1-16, ride through bars 17-20, hi-hat through bars 21-23, toms through bars 24-26, hi-hat through bars 27-32 and ride through bars 33-40, and 10 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 9-15, 21-23 and 46-51, and 2 more places -- 17.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

240 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
72 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 48 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
