253 bars at 229 BPM -- fast, and 4:04 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
93 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for.
hi-hat through bars 1-7, snare through bars 8-14, toms through bars 15-16, snare through bars 17-22, toms through bars 23-24 and snare through bars 25-30, and 19 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 51-64, 67-71 and 76-77, and 3 more places -- 15.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 78 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
229 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.
93 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 88 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
253 bars, about 4:04 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 78 exercises over 27 sittings, about 25 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
