207 bars at 174 BPM -- fast, and 4:46 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-8, toms through bars 9-10, snare through bars 11-16, hi-hat through bars 17-20, snare through bars 21-43 and hi-hat through bars 44-92, and 17 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 44-56, 59-72 and 80-91, and 1 more place -- 28.4% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

174 BPM, in 4/4, 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.
50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 23 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
