I have the same headphones and coincidentally also tested with Take The Power Back.
The bass is good on the Pro 900 and for really sub bass stuff it's great (like James Blake Limit To Your Love). But a lot of RATM songs, I find that the HD25 kick much harder than the 900 (ex in Take The Power Back, the part right after "bring that sh_t in")
For bass quality and quantity - Pro 900. For bass impact and "thumpness", I haven't heard anything that's better than HD25.

Agreed, the HD25 has more impact, but has nowhere near the sub bass of the Pro 900.

What are you powering the Pro 900 with? I used to have the HD25 and found the Pro 900 to have more kick when driven by the E10 or a Just Audio uHA-120.

Well, I'm not saying it doesn't have kick. It does, and it kicks hard. But the HD25s kick harder.

I'm running Hippo vB IEMs with the big bass plate hooked into a ZO2.3 at max bass when I need my ears beat down. Feels great.

Future Sonics Atrios are great IEMs when it comes to bass amount and impact as well
