125 bars of 6/4 -- not four -- at 160 BPM, 4:41 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
ride through bars 3-18, hi-hat through bars 19-22, ride through bars 23-41, hi-hat through bars 42-44, silence through bars 45-46 and ride through bars 47-48, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 23-24, 27-28 and 36-39, and 3 more places -- 20.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

160 BPM, in 6/4, 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.
67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 55 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
