compressing snare

How does one replicate the Metallica drum sound on "Enter Sandman"?

Specifically the kick and snare, how can you use compression, gating, reverb and Eq to even come close to it?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone here have any idea how a lot of the folks in Nashville doing the newer country material manage to produce such a hard hitting - yet extremely transparent - snare? Does anyone know what mic's/placement/EQ is generally being used? It's driving me batty... Too much compression sounds fake, too much volume kills the transparency, and extreme EQ's just sound bad... Any suggestions?
