Try out PSP MixSaturator, it has a nice range of colors (Tape, Clean, Digital).

For Bassline, definitely PSP MixBass.

Izotope Trash is my favourite. Super flexible, and with some nice bonus features like cabinet emulation and trashy delays.

I like trash..it sucks power out of your CPU though.

Mixsaturator is a distortion plug? how dirty can it get? That may be a nice one..do you use it an an aux ever or just an insert?

If you want a freebie, check out Cyanide.
MixBass and Mixsaturator (which I would use as an insert).

Ohmforce Predatohm is very innovative, but not quite simple to understand, You can get some interesting filtering technics with this one. Also, it's made in France, so I can't really recommend it objectively as I'm especially proud of these companies such as Arturia and OhmForce ^^.

Antares Tube is great for getting some gain with a nice distortion color. I'm using it on snares times to times, it boosts their mids. It's not screaming though.

I have to give another try to iZotope's Trash... It was way too much cpu hungry the last time I tried this one.
