Dreaming of Revenge is the fourth album by the American guitarist Kaki King, released in 2008.
The album was leaked on February 22, 2008, less than a month before its official release.
On March 4, 2008, iTunes released a full version of Dreaming of Revenge featuring the bonus track "I Need a Girl Who Knows a Map".
On March 11, Amoeba Records released a version of Dreaming of Revenge that included a Vinyl 33' copy of "Pull Me Out Alive" with the unreleased B-Side "Zeitgeist".
In early April, The Japanese Edition of Dreaming of Revenge was released with Both "Zeitgeist" and "I Need a Girl Who Knows a Map" on the same disc, along with full lyrics to all songs sung on the album.
Writing for Allmusic, music critic Thom Jurek wrote "This is not a remarkable album by any stretch, although its packaging is — it contains a punch-out mobile as a booklet — but it is a further step in the development of a singular and ever elusive artist who possesses a truckload of talent, but is still unsure of which direction to head to realize it all." Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly called it King's most "sophisticated release yet."
