"Dreaming with the Dead" is the full-length studio debut by death metal band Ripping Corpse, released in 1991. Among the ranks of the band was guitarist Erik Rutan, who would go on to become a temporary member of Morbid Angel and also front his own band Hate Eternal (he would also go on to produce records for several death metal bands; among them, his own, Cannibal Corpse, Vital Remains, Six Feet Under and Goatwhore). Worth noting as well is that Shaune Kelley would also play with Rutan's band as well, later on in their career.
