Death Metal generally will have deep raspy vocals, subject manner of the songs ranges from ahte of god to simply describing blood and gore. The guitars are fast but thicker and deeper sounding then black metal. (for a horrid comparison, Slipknot guitar tone compared to like green day guitar tone)
Black Metal generally has vocals that are like shrieking and the subject matter is almost ALWAYS about hatred of all things holy. Guitars are normally fast as well but a little higher pitched then death metal. (higher strings, no downtuning etc)
Of course there are 10000000 exceptions to those rules.
For a good illustraton of them, download some cannibal corpse and some Dark Throne, and the differnece will be easy to see.
