Anthrax
Haven’t listened to them much in years but I used to like their album, The Sound of White Noise. Singer can be a bit gruff but doesn’t quite scream like I think you are talking about.

Rules (interactive)

That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Can't think of a super great example, but a collab between bad omens and poppy comes to mind. That's only one song though. It's called V.A.N https://tidal.com/track/340509886?u
Still has vocals but it isn't just metal screaming
Didn't know poppy was still around. She's interesting but I can't help but think that song would have been better without her.
Didn't know poppy was still around.
She's actually growing in popularity, opening for and collaborating with major bands. She's booked on a lot of metal festivals as well.
Check out Night Verses
Instrumental metal is what you'd search to get where you want to be. There's plenty of bands that don't have vocals at all, and even more that do instrumental tracks here and there.
Thing is, you'll run into a pretty broad range of styles under that heading since a lot of sub genres are defined by vocals and/or lyrical content. But instrumental is a sub genre of its own. It just gets defined by the lack of vocals rather than any distinct sound like the way thrash is going to have that "thrashy" vibe.
Edit: Animals as Leaders is pretty much the go to recommendation for instrumental metal. They run closer to prog than death, but so do most instrument only bands.
Try out Ashenspire, their album Hostile Architecture was my album of the year in 2022. They aren't death metal per se, but they are heavy as shit. Best description is prog metal jazz infusion with spoken word poetry.
There's a fair few that straddle the line between death growls and clean vocals. Check out Agalloch, Insomnium, Words of Farewell, and Before the Dawn. There's also of course Amon Amarth, still gorwly but usually clear enough to understand.
I'd start looking up "melodic death metal" that's a good place to start for what you're looking for.
I wonder if AI vocal removal would be able to handle that
