154 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 3:37 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
50 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 bars 1-17, toms through bars 18-43, snare through bars 44-57, toms through bars 58-68, hi-hat through bars 69-89 and snare through bars 90-107, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 2-4, 6-7 and 10-12, and 15 more places -- 30.1% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

170 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.
50 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 28 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
