It took me a week to get -1 on Chemical Warfare, but I still can't do FotS to save my life. This is just me sucking at fast bass in general (which, in combination with alternating blasts, makes me ), but rating these songs in difficulty really comes down to personal preference. I would rather learn tough fills with odd sticking patterns than actually have to get better at a certain aspect of drumming, whereas I can imagine people who don't have as much trouble with that certain aspect, would consider a song that requires learning difficult sections a harder FC. You could say the same thing for War Ensemble and Scatterbrain vs. Space Truckin' and Beast and the Harlot, for example. There's just no way to consider everyone's preferences and abilities (but I REALLY think FotS > CW ) _________________

Switched some stuff around.
I'm REALLY don't agree with Bloodlines in low 50's.
There are A LOT more songs easier than that.
And it's one of the 3 songs I can't consistantly pass... (If that stands for anything really...) _________________

Bloodlines is top 3... 5 at most. That's crazy to put it as 72
rest of the hard songs other than CW and FotS are 14-15 NPS rolls or fast bass. Only rearranged the final few, didnt move much up from the other 60. Some songs like Setting Fires and Nemesis have those incredible annoying intros, but are easier to FC bc thats the only hard parts.
I tried to weigh Rolls and foot speed about even skill level. _________________

Machinehead should go down, it was a sightread FC for me (and my drumkit is beyond broken, that's like my 10th FC ever lol). And Lasso should go up because it has some fast tom hits and those snare roll things are really oddly charted. _________________

Moved Bleed It Out down. DAMN that was easy to FC!
Also Moved Savior down. It has two hard parts, and I missed one one my sightread. Will try to FC it today.
I'm kinda surprised to see "Dancing Through Sunday" so high. I missed one roll on that song on my sightread, and I'm very sucky on drums.
O well, you know it better that me I guess.
Moved Lasso up even though it's one of the 8 songs I've FC'd. (And I'm first on the leaderboards WTFBBQH4X!)
And I changed the 60~92 sightly to liking of EoZ
And people, the bottom and middle are important to! (Especially for beginning players like me ) _________________

Theme From Spiderman should be ranked easier. It's fast but it's pretty short and the only toughish bits (the rolls) are basically the same every time.
Cryin' is in no way #3. It's not that tough, but it's longer than a lot of songs and has all those slight variations in the beats that make it easier to screw up on than a lot of songs. |

Here's my top 10 breakdown:
Fury Of The Storm: Ridiculous blasts, and tough fills. I still have trouble passing it
Chemical Warfare: A few hard fills, nothing impossible though. I personally find the fill in chorus 1 the hardest, I hit the fill in chorus 3 EVERY time.
Bat Country: 2 hard fills, is kinda chokeable
Burn: This actually took me longer than Bat Country, due to more fills, and is longer.
Speeding: Full of fills that require weird sticking
This Day We Fight: Tough all round, (I think) it has a chokeable outro
Bloodlines: Blasts are ridiculous, but not hard outside of that.
2112 pt 7: Outro is a toughie, but the song is only like 2 minutes long
Move it on over: Requires a lot of concentration
Holy Wars...: Fast fills, load of double kicks
Fury Of The Storm

Songs that should be moved down (easier):
Deadfall
Psycosocial
It's Only Another Parsec
Cherry Bomb
Songs That should be moved up (harder):
2112 pt 2 (seriously underrated)
2112 pt 1
Children Of The Grave
Aqualung
Calling
Again, all in my opinion. _________________

bloodlines on X really isnt that bad, there's one mediocre fill and the blasts in the outro. i realize that blasting is a pretty big individual weakness for a lot of drummers but as far as blasting goes they arent really difficult (again, this is on expert) especially for someone with 2 pedals.
so its kinda like WarlordTM said, a lot of people have trouble blasting and thus will rank bloodlines a lot higher than it actually is. Low 80s to upper-70s.
also, Ties that bind is very chokable with the fill right at the end and then that weird section towards the end-ish with the alternating cymbals can be a little trippy when the bass changes. so thats why i can see it rated above some others that might come to mind first.
edit: black rain could move up some as well (harder), not sure what # specifically but its loaded with short chokeable crossover fills _________________

This is EXACTLY why I'm not lowering Bloodlines.
A lot of players can't do those blasts and a LOT of people don't have 2 pedals. I MIGHT lower Bloodlines in a later stadium. _________________

I think some descriptions would be helpful, namely for some of the later songs.
Also, just for the record you have Paranoid (Live) listed twice (#20 and #29), thought i'd point that out. _________________

As someone who's pretty damn awful at blasts, Bloodlines on Expert was a pretty damn easy FC.
Now Expert+... I would call it the second hardest song in the game. _________________
1st place on 8 GH:WoR songs on Expert+ drums! (well, at least for a couple days).
