Questions

What BPM is Make It Bleed?

165 BPM, in 4/4, 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.

Is Make It Bleed hard to play on drums?

84 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 63 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

136 bars, about 3:18 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 59 exercises over 20 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Make It Bleed?

22 fills to learn, played 41 times: bars 6, 12, 16, 17, 18, 20 and 35 more.
