224 bars at 208 BPM -- fast, and 4:18 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-9, ride through bars 10-17, hi-hat through bars 18-67, toms through bars 68-75 and ride through bars 76-77, and 22 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 18-24, 26-30 and 62, and 8 more places -- 26.9% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

208 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
75 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 52 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
