Question about new cymbal purchase


My friend has dissolved his band and is asking me to be his drummer. I want to hear opinions on what I should buy. I want good sound but I am on a budget. What brand and series should I purchase? The music is Rock, Reggae and sometimes hard Rock. I have not played in 4 years, so I want something to start off well.

We actually have a ton of threads here on drummers being on a budget. Flip back a few threads and there is some good advice.
