Black metal - dark and instrumental.
Death metal - they really love the whole deep, guttural, I-think-my-larynx-is-destroying-itself kind of singing. Also dark.
Thrash metal - fast, dark metal.
Doom metal - uh, dark and sorrowful?
I personally prefer to avoid any metal that has a prefix, as they all seem to involve the whole "dark" adjective, and in my opinion, could also include "crappy" and "depressing". And it's not like I haven't given it a chance. I've been exposed to TONS of it thanks to some of my highschool friends as well as some of my co-workers.
