Questions

What BPM is Psychosis?

162 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 Psychosis hard to play on drums?

52 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 45 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

274 bars, about 6:46 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 43 exercises over 10 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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 Psychosis?

11 fills to learn, played 26 times: bars 2, 4, 12, 14, 16, 24 and 20 more.
