This stuff is true for a lot of western music, but plenty of styles use harmonic minor or melodic minor and don't follow these patterns. You specifically mention death metal, which very frequently uses the diminished scale...again, it won't follow this stuff since it's not diatonic. Most of the information here seems sound, but I wouldn't say things like "this will never vary", because it does in many styles, and that's not even getting into atonal music that has no key.
