Rockett Blue Note was great, the older one with two modes. Can do transparent or screamer impressions depending how you set it.
Revival Drive, I've got a Hot Rod Compact and messing with gain & blend it can do low gain really well. It does great guitar vol cleanup too.
Fuzz face into dirt or crunchy amp, roll off the guitar vol. This into the RD is what I do most of the time for low gain stuff.

I got one in July and love it. I'd previously had a Kingsley Page, which I loved but for my situation didn't give enough drive without a volume boost. I replaced it with a DCX and have to say I haven't looked back. It works beautifully and is more versatile than the Page. And, I know how highly the Page is regarded.
I am now looking to pair the DCX with a Halcyon Gold to cover all my drive needs. The Gold looks like it is very versatile and not just another Klone - the mid hump can be removed and it is very responsive.
My favorites Vemuram Shanks, Hudson Broadcast, Gladio SC and Benson Preamp.
I want to try The Dane, Tilt Shawn Tubbs pedal lots of compliments about these two.
Kingsley Page is also a level up but has more tone controls and the gain characteristic (clipping?) is really, really great to my ear. Softer than the Barbershop.
Both the BS and the KP are great for what the OP wants.
The main downside though for me is that the more distorted settings can be a bit raspy at times - sometimes I love it, others I look for something smoother like the Page. I'd like the Page to have a touch more gain though.
But the Kingsley Page is seriously good. Never tried that yellow Taxi thing!
Also, Mick on TPS summed it up well by saying that it was 'easy to play'. Somehow it is very forgiving.
