200 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 4:27 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-24, snare through bars 25-40, hi-hat through bars 41-64, snare through bars 65-80, hi-hat through bars 81-112 and snare through bars 113-128, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 9, 11 and 13, and 39 more places -- 26% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

180 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.
53 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 36 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
