Although In the Halls of Awaiting is very good you can still tell it's a debut. It has a few boring and uninspired songs on it. AtWW on the other hand is one of the best melodeath albums ever.
Current ranking:
1. Above the Weeping World
2. Since the Day It All Came Down
3. Across the Dark
4. In the Halls of Awaiting
No other album is as interesting as Above the Weeping World, in my opinion. Across the Dark seems like it should be, but in all honesty it's just a stale repeat with clean vocals thrown in.
