    zildjian A/Z custom 17, 18, or 19 inch in the medium - heavy range, Paiste Rude, Sabian AAX/HHX, or Meinl MB20, all again in the 17, 18, 19 inch size, and medium - heavy weight range

    between 170 and 220 bucks
    i'd go with the sabian aax's or the rudes because a customs don't really sound like metal cymbals to me.
    Ostinato is the way to go!

    Z customs are metal cymbals, and A custom projection crashes and medium crashes would be metal. In my opinion metal means medium - heavy weight..so in that case you'd be wrong ringo. As for price, new these would run as ringo said 175 - 225 dollars, but if you look on ebay, you can get some really good deals, for good stuff.

    alot of metal guys (depending on the hundred new genres of metal) are getting away from the over loud and gongy "metal" cymbals like z customs and going for a more explosive response and quicker decay. like the a custom and a custom projection crashes.

    I think i saw a metal drummer a while ago using some K customs 0.o

    But yea, The paiste rude series was specifically made for loud, heavy, driving music, same with the Meinl MB20, Zildjian Z custom, and Sabian AA metal-X and AAX metal

    Stick to larger sizes, 18+ inches, maybe a 17, but, try and stick to 18-19-20 inch crashes
