Shortly after these changes the group officially became Steel Assassin in 1983. Phil Grasso replaced Steve Bunker in late '83 and penned the song "Executioner" which appeared on Metal Massacre 6 in 1985.
Steel Assassin disbanded in 1985, a brief reunion took place in 1988 keeping the Steel Assassin name alive. The band members continued on in other projects such as Madd Hunter, Hells Fellons, and Vagabond Kings (a Thin Lizzy tribute featuring Curran, Mooney, and Barry Spillberg and Bob Mayo of Wargasm). In 2002, their cumulative demo works between 1983 and 1985 were released in a CD titled From The Vaults.
