Questions

What BPM is Postmortal Coprophagia?

194 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.

Is Postmortal Coprophagia hard to play on drums?

85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 81 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

137 bars, about 2:36 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 62 exercises over 21 sittings, about 26 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 Postmortal Coprophagia?

12 fills to learn, played 19 times: bars 16, 18, 26, 30, 35, 36 and 13 more.
