Questions

What BPM is No Pity For A Coward?

200 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is No Pity For A Coward hard to play on drums?

56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 29 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

191 bars, about 3:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 56 exercises over 14 sittings, about 29 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 No Pity For A Coward?

12 fills to learn, played 26 times: bars 2, 3, 4, 12, 17, 18 and 20 more.
