179 bars at 173 BPM -- fast, and 4:09 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for.
silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-10, snare through bars 11-20, ride through bars 21-22, hi-hat through bars 23-30 and snare through bars 31-34, and 14 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 11-13, 15-17 and 19-20, and 6 more places -- 11.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 60 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
