184 bars at 186 BPM -- fast, and 3:57 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-8, snare through bars 9-22, toms through bars 23-24, snare through bars 25-30, toms through bars 31-32 and snare through bars 33-40, and 14 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 53-55, 57-59 and 61-63, and 5 more places -- 15% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

186 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.
59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

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.
