Space is the second EP by American metalcore band The Devil Wears Prada. The album was released on August 21, 2015, through Rise Records. It is the group's first release without guitarist Chris Rubey.[1] It is also the band's second conceptual release, after the release of their concept EP Zombie EP, in which they embarked on a five-year anniversary tour earlier in 2015. This is the last release by The Devil Wears Prada to feature original drummer Daniel Williams after he departed with the band in July 2016.
Vocalist Mike Hranica described the album as being very "thematic".[2] Brian Leak of Alternative Press referred to the EP's sound as "spacecore".
"Planet A" is about the astronaut Elizabeth, who experiences a malfunction that sets off the events of the EP.[3] "Asteroid" is credited in the album notes as "An Asteroid Towards Earth".[4]

Hranica stated that the band felt confident in working with the label again.[6]
