Really though, the MIDI pack for the progressive foundry has time and time again been a source of inspiration.

That snappy, ringing snare sound, imho, suits a wider range of heavy (but not necessarily metal) music. Its hard to explain, but listen to the snare in the song 'My Own Summer' by the Deftones. Specifically, the routing I use gives me a higher pitched snare that I think sounds more organic on things like ghost notes. I haven't used the Metal packs, so I won't be able to compare them directly, but I'm a big fan of it.
