192 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 4:31 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
64 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 bars 1-2, hi-hat through bars 3-8, toms through bars 9-10, hi-hat through bars 11-24, toms through bars 25-26 and hi-hat through bars 27-39, and 15 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 28-34, 36-41 and 52-56, and 6 more places -- 27.5% 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.
64 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 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
