my experience with metal records has always been that if you're tracking on the cheap, trigger the kick.
get a good solid sample of your drum and run a program like drumagog.
when you start getting real fast kick parts you can lose all hit definition and your drum becomes a low rumble rather than having the attack you're looking for.
if you want to try a 2 mic set-up try a d112 and a 421, you'll get all your low from the d112 and more attack than you'd ever need from the 421.
i dont like triggering snares or toms, they just never really sound right to me.
hope that helps.
