I don't know about Be'lakor but I certainly wouldn't describe Kamlah as brutal. How familiar are you with melodic death metal?? I’m no expert but if you’re just getting into it some starting points would be Dark Tranquility, early In Flames, Insomnium, At the Gates, Eucharist, Desultory, Arch Enemy etc.

I am a Hardcore Punk fan, so I like hearing those early thrash records when it was in the transition period.

Yeah, I’m a much bigger metal fan but the amount of influence punk had on metal is huge.
My favourite hardcore punk album ever is “Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing” and even that could somewhat easily be called a thrash, or at least proto-thrash album. Also Motorhead’s self-titled debut (and Maiden's for that matter) is pretty damn punk-ish.
I also love lots of crossover stuff like Cryptic Slaughter, D.R.I, Fearless Iranians From Hell and the mighty CARNIVORE!!
