В октябре 2002 года несколько музыкантов — любителей фильмов категории B и соответствующей эстетики объединились в группу с эпатажным названием Bloodsucking Zombies From Outer Space (BZFOS). Неподготовленному зрителю концерты казались абсурдом и китчем, а меломаны до сих пор продолжают спорить, к какому из жанров относятся «Кровососущие Зомби Из Открытого Космоса»: сайкобилли, хоррор-панк, готабилли или все вместе взятое.
Участники BZFOS выступают под зловещими псевдонимами Dead «Richy» Gein, Dr. «He-Mann» Schreck, The Reverend «Bloodbath» и Mr. «Jim» Evilize, позиционируя себя захватчиками, прибывшими с кровожадной планеты Трансильвания, чтобы утопить Землю в кровавом рок-н-ролле.
Первым на группу обратил внимание самый известный в Германии хоррор-панк лейбл Fiend Force, выпустив песню «Eaters of the Dead» в составе сборника «This is Horrorpunk».
После этого с Fiend Force был заключён контракт, результатом которого стал дебютный альбом «See you at Disneyland…» Одновременно расширяется география концертов: помимо Австрии, BZFOS начинают выступать в Германии, Венгрии, Чехии и Швейцарии.
Вышедший вскоре альбом «Night At Grand Guignol» получал стабильно хорошие отзывы и дал возможность группе заявить о себе более широкой аудитории. Участие в концертах и фестивалях, вместе с признанными мастерами жанра Blitzkid и Rezurex, выводит BZFOS на новый уровень.
Успешными оказались и третий альбом «Monster Mutant Boogie», и EP «Killer Klowns From Outer Space», выпущенный ограниченным тиражом в 666 экземпляров. Заглавный трек EP — кавер культовой песни The Dickies к фильму «Клоуны-убийцы из космоса». Еще один кавер — сайкобилли-хоррор-панк-версия знаменитой композиции «Poison» Элиса Купера.

At the beginning of the18th century, the priest Paul Praetorius Pachelbl was thrown on thepyre by a furious mob - after the spiritual had massacred the totalThomaner boys choir. However at the last moment, he was abducted byextraterrestrial pirates, which made himtheir slave. Many years later Pachelbl was freed from his life ofslavery by Mr. Evilize , a brutal and most fearsome space pirate.Evilize took him to his home planet, the planet Transylvania. .Transylvania is the root of all evil, a place of frightening andendless torment this state of mind is fitting to all that dwell on thisplanet. From here Mr.Evilise roves his territories as he has forcenturies as a sort of lawless tramp always on the search for blood andprey but until now always alone. That has changed and Mr. Evilize hasfound his only real ally in Pachelbl, who he has dubbed "The ReverendBloodbath" One day whilst searching for interplanetary signals theyinadvertently received a short signal from Earth- its contents adocumentation over the US American serial killer Edward Theodor Gein.Deep within Reverend Bloodbath, a small seed of hope began to germinatethat the earth had finally made a pact with evil. Both men started toresearch with haste for any information about this planet -unfortunately they got the wrong information from the interplanetarylibrary and instead they were handed a list of films banned on theEarth for their extremely violent content. Equipped with these veryincorrect impressions, both men flew to the earth in order to find EdGein and form an allegiance of terror. To their deepest regrets,they were too late. Gein had lost his long battle against cancer in1984. They began to search for a possibility to re-animate Mr.Geinslong dead corpse. Evilize remembered a story he had heard many yearsago. It was the strange story of a crazy man named Dr. Hermann Schreck.Evilize remembered hearing that Schreck had developed an Elixir to theacquisition of the immortality itself it was successful but it had asmall side-effect. Finally they decided to find the physician in hisSwiss retreat and try to persuade him to participate in their evilplan. The Dr. was a walk over and keen to begin. The serial killerscorpse was in a very advanced state of decay and due to his opticalappearance he was given the fitting name "Dead Gein". The earthlyreality made it clear that Mr. Evilize and The Reverend Bloodbath hadmade a mistake and the planet was quite stable, no terror and anarchyto be found. Disappointedthey concluded that in the autumn of 2002 they would take revenge onthe inhabitants of this peaceful planet and stampede over its surfacewith their evil spouting Rock´n´roll music. The Bloodsucking Zombiesfrom outer Space emerged.
