133 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 3:25 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bar 1, snare through bars 2-18, silence through bars 19-21, hi-hat through bars 22-37, snare through bars 38-50 and hi-hat through bars 51-60, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 3, 5 and 7, and 9 more places -- 11.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

170 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.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 58 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

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