Recommend drum midi for EZDrummer for early-mid 90's Grunge (Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains)

I'm having a difficult time finding Alt/grunge drum midi files. Some of those bands played simple beats in 4/4, but there was a very different feel and style to band like Alice in Chains and Soundgarden, and others from that style and time. There are metal packs everywhere, and straight up 4/4 power rock packs found easily enough. Anyone found midi files that work well for this style?
 
When I was using ACID (the program not the substance!) I had good luck with Siggi Baldursson's Drum Sugar, but nothing since then. Recommendations are appreciated! 
Thanks! 

Sonar...sorry... SONAR Platinum, HP Envy PC I5 2.7Ghz, Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, Behringer X Touch, Lots of strats, Marshalls, and Fender Twins! 
Just here to learn and share ideas about music and find lots of tricks to make me sound better than I actually am.

    Addictive Drums Alternative might work for you. Loud Rock maybe also.

    The Progressive Foundry or AOR MIDI might work for that genre also...

    I can see the Progressive Foundry working, but the AOR MIDI? I'll have to listen to the samples again. When I think AOR I think of bands like Journey, but digging a little deeper, Steve Smith was (is?) a monster drummer. Ya never know!

    Is it possible to use AD midi in EZD2? Stupid question, most likely! I guess the question is more how do you do it? Simple cut and paste?

    AD2's MIDI files are wonderfully hidden. But...you have an option. There's a hidden page in your XLN online account where you can download all of the AD2 MIDIpaks you've purchased as MIDI files.

    I originally posted links to two grunge audio loop sources not yet identified by others, Drum Werks V by Beta Monkey, and Grunge Drum Loops by Drums On Demand. That reply disappeared, probably swept into the spam pile. I'll post this without the links, and then create a second reply with links (in case that one goes away, as well).

    I've never heard of either one. I don't see the links, but that's what google is for. Thanks for the tip!
