186 bars at 174 BPM -- fast, and 4:18 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

kick and crashes through bars 1-5, snare through bars 6-14, hi-hat through bars 15-28, snare through bars 29-42, hi-hat through bars 43-60 and snare through bars 61-64, and 13 more changes after that.
