Good Drum Samples

I've been flying through the internet looking for some new drum samples and can't seem to find any that would sound rather nice. I'm mainly looking for good punchy kicks and some good crashes/hi-hats/cymbals. Can anyone help me out? or possibly donate some samples? I'd be very grateful!
Also dancing corn?

Actually I looked very hard, and I have all of the Vengeance sample packs, but alot of their kicks and cymbals sound almost exactly the same, or are complete ear rape. :/

Look up the mavriks sample pack. Not many samples but there really lively and punch. He has other packs including a sick growl one.

If you want some fat kicks, I recommend Black Octopus Sound "Monster Kicks"

Synthesize the main bulk of your drums = exactly the sound you want. Then layer in samples to complete the sound.
Saves fucking around with crap samples, trying to find the "perfect kick" in a single hit.

Vengeance has some pretty nice kicks if you look in the house packs and in the essential clubsounds packs, some of the kicks are very nice (especially the "breakbeat" kick subcategory, those are good, short kicks and sound great in a mixdown). As for cymbals, there are some good cymbals in all categories of almost any pack that's worthwhile. Here's a link to a good tutorial that helped me out a lot when I was just starting and my producer friends were saying my mixdowns were lacking. It really improved my tracks!

Best cymbals are the ones sampled from real drums.

On topic: 505/808/909 packs are pretty sick man. I don't know how you CAN'T find good drum samples these days.

I can't believe there is so much support for Vengeance and then suggesting processing them
more...Vengeance is almost all over processed garbage IMO. Try the Gold Baby or Wave Alchemy freebies...
But to whomever said something about it being crazy you can't find good drum samples these days... +1,000
