Depends on the subgenre of metal music, but great majority of modern metal music uses triggered drums, so what you hear on record is not what the drums sound in nature. If it is slow, AC/DC or Mötley Crüe kind of hard Rock Music, the drums are tuned quite low. If it is extreme metal like Nasum or Cannibal Corpse, the drums are usually tuned a bit higher than usual and triggered because the human physique just can't keep up with the consistency needed by the music genre.

Timbales are drums that are tuned much higher than tom-toms and are a lot shallower.

A pitched drum is typically referred to as a "tuned drum" or "pitched percussion." Examples of pitched drums include timpani and marimba, which can produce specific musical notes. Unlike untuned drums such as snare or bass drums, pitched drums are designed to resonate at specific frequencies, allowing them to be used melodically in music.
Tuned gongs are percussion instruments that produce specific pitches when struck. They are made of metal and can come in various sizes and shapes. Tuned gongs are commonly used in orchestras and traditional music ensembles for their unique sound.
