I presume you're referring to Norwegian black metal. Norway doesn't have a lot of DM, in fact the only band that comes to mind is Vomit from the 80s.

Darkthrone's Soulside Journey is great Norwegian death metal, not that they obviously stuck to that for very long.
We are definitely more known for our "true norwegian" black metal, but we got some other stuff too...

Quite possible - I don't listen to any of it, just going by memory of mass media articles.
Wasn't even aware of them. My favourite is probably Chton, though their work after Chtonian Lifecode has been spotty at best.
Speaking of Norwegian DM from 90s I think Cadaver and Fester are quite great.
