Slaughter, who Strum met while producing Sin, was brought in as the Vinnie Vincent Invasion new lead vocalist. The video "Boys Are Gonna Rock", directed by Jeff Stein, was produced featuring Mark Slaughter as the singer over Fleischman's vocal track. The video received heavy rotation on MTV. At that time, the band's look was entirely over the top glam. Strum spent the next months touring North America with Vinnie Vincent Invasion, opening for acts such as Alice Cooper and Iron Maiden. All Systems Go, the Vinnie Vincent Invasion's second LP for Chrysalis, was recorded at Cherokee Studios. Strum played a key role as co-producer, arranger, and engineer while recording the band's albums. Bobby Rock stated in an interview that Strum played a producer role to Vinnie Vincent, offering suggestions and direction while tracking solos, and being "an extraordinary engineer when it came to "punching in." All Systems Go, released in May 1988, had a more accessible hard rock sound than their debut album and the band went on a headlining club tour with a few theaters included. The music video for "That Time of Year" became an MTV hit. In August, the band put out "Love Kills", the title song for the movie A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. The single was also released as a music video. Three months after the release of their second album, Vinnie Vincent Invasion played their final concert on August 26, 1988, in Anaheim, California, and it was officially announced that the group had disbanded. In an interview with Circus magazine in late 1988, Mark Slaughter stated that the split was amicable, saying "When we first joined the Invasion, we were told that it would be a group situation, but it gradually changed to the point where we were all sidemen. Vinnie wants to be a guitar hero, we want to be a band." 1988–present: Slaughter 1988–1989: Formation Following his departiure from Vinnie Vincent Invasion in August 1988, Dana Strum and Mark Slaughter shared a cramped apartment in Los Angeles with seven other struggling musicians while planning their next move. Strum revealed that despite having similar modes of thought, he and Slaughter were "two distinctly different animals". However, their differences worked to their advantage, and after securing a deal with Chrysalis Records, they wrote songs, often penning lyrics on top of Domino's Pizza boxes at 3 a.m., and held formal auditions
