155 bars at 180 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.
71 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for.
hi-hat through bars 1-4, snare through bars 5-6, toms through bars 7-8, snare through bars 9-16, hi-hat through bars 17-20 and snare through bars 21-40, and 12 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 17-20, 33-39 and 134-135, and 1 more place -- 9% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
