The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-7, 9-11 and 13-15, and 4 more places -- 34.1% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
It is played on hi-hat, snare and kick, counted in thirty-second notes. On its own it scores 88 out of 100 -- hard -- and the thing that decides that is how many notes a second it asks for.
The whole song is 85 out of 100, so the beat is most of what the song asks for. Get it clean and the rest follows.
A part this hard is not learned by playing it slowly and hoping. The room opens it on its simplest reduction -- the timekeeper alone, at 88 BPM -- and adds the notes back over 5 rungs, each with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
Tempo goes 88, 106, 124, 142 and 160 BPM, and the gate at each one is 8 loops in a row with no wrong note and no wobble in the time.
PRACTISE THIS BEAT →A one-bar groove on hi-hat, snare and kick, in 4/4 at 160 BPM, counted in thirty-second notes. It is written out above, and it covers 34.1% of the bars the kit plays.
Bars 5-7, 9-11, 13-15 and 17-19, and 3 more places. The time is kept on the snare to start with, and it changes 9 times over the song.
88 out of 100 on its own -- hard. The song as a whole is 85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
