Questions

What BPM is My Fears Have Become Phobias?

157 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 My Fears Have Become Phobias hard to play on drums?

82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 59 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

151 bars, about 3:50 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 77 exercises over 26 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 My Fears Have Become Phobias?

23 fills to learn, played 33 times: bars 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11 and 27 more.
