Questions

What BPM is Unchallenged Hate?

201 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.

Is Unchallenged Hate hard to play on drums?

68 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

112 bars, about 2:13 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 43 exercises over 12 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

8 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 17, 21, 25, 29, 33, 37 and 8 more.
