If you wanna copy Kerry King's or Tom Morello's sound, you have to slap in a set of EMG pickups on your guitar. These are a bit pricey, and since they're active pickups, you'll need to get active onboard pre-amps for your guitar as well.
Dimebag's a different story. He used to have Bill Lawrence pickups on his Washburn axes then Seymour Duncan made a customized pickup (the Dimebucker) which was the one he used on the newer Dean guitars he used up until his death.
Note that pickups are only one part of the whole tonal equation. Also, i have heard quite a number of guitarists playing the same stuff on less-than-glamorous gear, so it would be best to try and seduce the sound you want from your own gear first before shelling out major cash for upgrades.

Rage = dunno
Pantera = Solid state amp head and duncan forgot the name
Slayer = EMG
so yun more or less go for an EMG
-
bagay dyan sa epiphone mo ay yung
EMG ni Zakk Wylde....(EMG active pickups)
if you would like to consider Dimarzios,
try "The Breed" or "evolution" (very high gain pickup)
pero kung gusto mo medyo vintage sound na medium to high gain,
Seymour Duncan JB '59 or Dimarzio Super Distortion
kung dyan mo sa Epiphone ikakabit, - yung regular spacing ang kunin mo-- dont get the F-spaced(dimarzio) or trembuckers(seymour duncan)

Rage = for most of the first album and the second album, tom morello used EMG 81s for his main crunch tone with a stock telecaster for some songs. He still uses his mainstay JCM 800 Marshall head through a Peavey cab.
Pantera = Bill Lawrence pickups on the bridge position of his Washburn signature guitars. For a long time, Dime used a solid state Randall RG100 head until he switched to Warheads then Krank later on during the post-Pantera years.
Slayer = Kerry King uses EMG 81's in the bridge position of his signature BC Riches through a variety of Marshall amps.
Zakk Wylde = EMG 81 in the bridge and 85 in the neck.
I can speak for the tone of the 81, 85, SD Custom, '58, and the DiMarzio Tone Zones since I use them. The tone cuts well for the custom, the tone zone and the 81 without too much noise which is good since I get turn my volume and gain on my amps pretty high. The 85 and SD 58's soound warm and good for jazzy runs and warmer soounding guitar leads without the tone turning muddy. Hope this helps.

Gibson P-94. best of both worlds.

Bareknuckles Miracle Man Humbucker. Makes EMG sound sterile.
