Taken from 'All Systems Go', the second studio album by American glam metal band Vinnie Vincent Invasion, released on May 17, 1988. All Systems Go featured new vocalist Mark Slaughter, who replaced Robert Fleischman. The band toured in support for this album, headlining small clubs, but broke up after the completion of the tour at the end of August 1988. The album features Yngwie Malmsteen's vocalist Jeff Scott Soto on backing vocals. This would be the last studio album from the Vinnie Vincent Invasion for 35 years, until the late 2023 release of their upcoming third album Judgment Day (Guitarmageddon Pt. I).
All Systems Go peaked at No. 64 on the Billboard 200. Two singles from the album, "Love Kills" and "That Time of Year" were released with music videos. "Love Kills" was featured in the soundtrack for A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. MTV hosted an entire hour for the film A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master which featured Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger and guest Vinnie Vincent promoting the music video. However, it seems that while the song is still in the film, later releases of the Dream Master on VHS and DVD have the song turned down quite a bit compared to other songs in the film and songs in other films from the Nightmare on Elm Street series. A third track from the album, "Ashes to Ashes" received some radio airplay.

Love Kilss (Lyrics)
So long since I've waited
To live again
You've brought my world to an end
Love takes its victim
And leaves its remains
My broken heart has died in vein
Tell me why have we forsaken
The dreams we had
The pain makes it so hard to understand
You're life time ago
But a memory away
And I'll love you till my resurrection day
Love kills, the fire's gone
Dying ember still remain
Love kills, and now you've gone
Girl, I'll never be the same
Again
Without your love, life seems so dead, so unreal
And now there's nothing left to feel
Someday we'll meet again,
Oh girl, that much I know
At heaven's gate we'll say hello
Now I hear the wind is calling,
My lonely, lonely soul
For sorrows trembling hands please,
Let me go
Love kills, the fire's gone
Dying ember still remain
Love kills, and now you've gone
Girl, I'll never be the same
Again
Love's dying sin, is just dust in the wind
I face the other side of no tomorrow
Love kills, the fire's gone
Dying ember still remain
Love kills, and now you've gone
Girl, I'll never be the same
Love kills, and love is just
A dying ember in the rain
Love kills, a heart betrayed
Oh lord, please, please, please ease my pain
Oh love kills, girl I need your love
Love kills, with all its heart
Girl, I'm crying in the rain
