Unlike Alonge's previous albums that focused primarily on satirizing musical tropes and the Communist Manifesto, Space Zombies directly parodies the bands The Devil Wears Prada, A Day to Remember, Architects, and For Today.[6] In addition to the band parodies, the EP also features an acoustic version of the song "The Swimmer" from Beating a Dead Horse, with the original song being a parody of the band Memphis May Fire.
