144 bars at 166 BPM -- fast, and 3:28 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
76 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-10, kick and crashes through bars 11-12, hi-hat through bars 13-28, snare through bars 29-32, hi-hat through bars 33-35 and toms through bars 36-38, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 39-41, 43-45 and 71-73, and 4 more places -- 14.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
