I also enjoy metal very much... That said, I favor neutrality and soundstage equally over the rest.
I know that metal can sound very enjoyable with LCD-2 for example... That said, I just want NEUTRALITY and therefore I think I will skip SM64.
According to Audiowood, the soundstage of the EX1000 is like 5% better than the SM64.
Overall, the SM64 seem to sound a bit darker than the EX1000.
I only listened to the HD800 for like 20 minutes so I can't really compare them to my SM64, but I have to say that I LOVE them for any kind of metal. I'm mainly listening to metal (yes, also that nice technical stuff like Braindrill, Origin, Atheist, Ne Obliviscaris and so on) and I think that I can't be more happy with the soundsignature of the SM64. Fits metal very nice with the forward mids, the punchy bass and that glorious treble
You can definitely call the SM64 "coloured", but in a way that benefits rock and metal. Jazz and classic also sound great, btw.
I have to admit that this is a pretty hard decision you have to make here Very close race.
