232 bars at 216 BPM -- fast, and 4:17 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bar 1, silence through bars 2-3, ride through bars 4-8, snare through bars 9-22, ride through bars 23-33 and snare through bars 34-40, and 15 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 200-202, 204-206 and 209-211, and 5 more places -- 14% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

216 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.
57 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 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
