172 bars at 200 BPM -- fast, and 3:26 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bar 1, snare through bars 2-9, hi-hat through bars 10-11, ride through bars 12-13, hi-hat through bars 14-17 and toms through bars 18-34, and 12 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 38, 40 and 42, and 33 more places -- 27.9% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

200 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.
54 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 27 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
