Well the ceramic NB works really well for thrash in a heavier guitar that might sound a bit darker than yours but I suspect an alnico version of the NB would work very nicely for your rig.
I know certain members here recommend the Cold Sweat for a lot of applications and I can't say (because I don't own one) if it's ideal for your purposes or not but you might find that a NB is a good, fat sounding humbucker that's *extremely* versatile. I played with a group that did some Beatles, Chris Stapleton, Judas Priest, Y&T, Pretenders, Queen, and a bunch of stuff in between, and I played lead on some and rythm on others with the ceramic NB in a Les Paul Traditional. At home I can use the same guitar for Slayer and Metallica (through the mid-90s at least) and some pretty compelling AC/DC tones. Don't get me wrong, I have to make some changes to the EQ on the amp to dial everything in, but the NB is simply the most versatile and amazing set of HBs I've ever used.
I'm not sure I want to talk you out of any BKP set, but perhaps listen to the clips a lot and see what makes sense to you for the music you want to play. Maybe Dave can comment on the Cold Sweat for other genres or you can comment on how much you do or don't want to stray from your core styles. For me the versatility is important because I'm kind of all over the place and the Miracle Man or Juggernaut or Warpig (three that I've tried) seem like they're incredibly good niche pickups (especially the latter two) but aren't nearly versatile enough for me. Or maybe you don't need that.
