Ripping Corpse
Ripping Corpse was a short-lived metal band from New Jersey,
notable for (among other things) being one of the earlier bands
of Erik Rutan, who would later find fame as guitarist for the
well-known Floridian death metal band
Morbid Angel.
The band managed a couple of demos before recording their one and
only record, 1991's
Dreaming With The Dead.
Musically, Ripping Corpse straddled the fine line between death and
thrash, with the guitarwork more death-ish (almost grindcore at
times), while vocalist Scott Ruth sounded more like the traditional
thrash singers of the late eighties.
Dreaming is a pretty intense album, and has stood the test of
time well, as it still sounds pretty fresh more than a decade after
its release.
The band broke up in 1993, but several years later three of the
five members would come together in a new band,
Dim Mak,
and their first album was produced by none other than Erik Rutan,
though he wasn't one of the three who formed DM.
