I'm honestly new to metal, so I'm not well versed in its subgenres, but an album/EP I really love is Pleiades' Dust by Gorguts. Don't think it's black/death, but I'm new!

It's not really that scary, unless you're talking about Burzum, because the man of the band did murder someone, but other than that they aren't really bad. In fact, Sigh, the first band that I linked, are Japanese.
