Clear double-ply heads are probably the most common tom heads in modern pop, rock, and heavy music. They give a punchy tone with clear attack and a bit of sustain and tone.
Evans's G2s have been consistently high quality. They sound good, they're durable, have a good tuning range, and they don't lose tone too quickly. If you make sure that you angle your drums in a way that you don't get dents in your drumheads (that is, you hit the drumhead as flat as possible, not with the top of the tip of the stick), these will serve you for a good while before beginning to lose tone.
