Is Lost Kitten hard to play on drums?

60 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 19 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
