- "Streetcar" appeared in EA's Madden NFL 2006, "Rookie of the Year" was featured in Criterion's Burnout 3 and in WrestleMania 21 The Game, and "All The Rage" was featured in Burnout Revenge.
- The song Streetcar begins with the sound of someone dialing a phone. Some members of the official forum (ffaf.co.uk/forum) used the dial tones to figure out the number, which turned out to be the lead singer, Matt Davies' phone number, and he was forced to change it.[citation needed]
- Hours (2005-2006) featured unusual methods of recording, for example Matt Davies' vocals were recorded whilst in a moving car and on a crowded Seattle, WA street, for the song 'Drive'.
- Fightstar, a fellow band from the United Kingdom, has recorded a cover of "She Drove Me to Daytime Television" which they released on their single Hazy Eyes.
- Funeral for a Friend is the first band to be on the cover of Kerrang magazine before actually releasing an album.
- Prior to the formation of January Thirst, both original vocalist Michael Davies, and original drummer Johnny Phillips, were in the band Mongrel, who would go on to become the post-hardcore act Hondo Maclean. Additionally, current drummer Ryan Richards was also a member of Hondo Maclean prior to joining the band.
