How's about doing away with the caps lock, eh?
A lot of people like the Marshall 603s for overheads... I like 'em.
The ECM8000 is also a good bang for the buck mic.
Also, a tip: You're recording the whole kit with the overheads, not just the cymbals. You have to place them accordingly to avoid phase issues. Actually, a lot of engineers use more overhead sound than close mics - Try bringing up the overheads first and then blend in the individual mics.

I've not used the Marshall 603s but I hear they sound a great deal like the Octava MK-012's which I have a lot of experience with. Great overheads. Also Audio Technica 4033's are good. Also Earthworks mics work great here.
