80 bars at 280 BPM -- fast, and 1:09 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
87 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bars 1-15, hi-hat through bars 16-17, ride through bars 18-31, hi-hat through bars 32-35, kick and crashes through bars 36-39 and silence through bars 40-46, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 18-23 and 26-31 -- 21.8% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 27 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
280 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.
87 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 100 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
80 bars, about 1:09 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 27 exercises over 9 sittings, about 26 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
5 fills to learn, played 7 times: bars 2, 16, 17, 25, 33, 47 and 1 more.
