Our new song ‘Straight Pride Month’ is out on Friday 13th June. It is a jazzy noise punk blast of unmitigated fury that ends with the closest approximation TFS could get to a showtune. Musically the song find TFS returning to their standard mesh of varied time signatures, unreleting melodic noise with a sound that feels like a rollercoaster cart that is about to come off the rails at any moment. 

It’s fitting that a song about upset gammon moaning about why they “don’t get a special month” just for being basic bitches features Tom Robinson on backing vocals. The man who was not afaird to stand up and shout ‘Glad to Be Gay’ at a time where homosexuals were still being persecuted both by police and public alike – Tom was one of the pioneers in saying “fuck you” to bigotry. TFS view it as an honor as well as a career highlight. 

The lyrics are pretty straight forward, a call out to why there’s a pride and a clear sample of a historic injustice, aimed towards all the homophobes with ‘lest we forget’ stuck on thier white vans, clearly they forgot. All leading to a classic shout out to let all complainers know that, now, there is a straight pride month so they can come out of the closets and live free, running through fields hand in hand with Theresa May who hates gay people and was there working as a scarecrow anyway. The song is the second of fiur new releases recorded by Those Fucking Snowflakes, mostly self produced due to lack of money or interest from people with money. The drums were recorded poshly by Tom Peters at Trapdoor Studio in London and the songs were mixed by Chris Hope of Milkshed Studios in Chorley. Everything else was badly recorded by the band themselves 

THOSE FUCKING SNOWFLAKES
NO SKY FOR RISHI

Hello, lovely to see you again. We’ll be using this website for updates more because all social media is nazi trash – not too much though as it requires effort on our part.

This Friday, 25th April saw the release of our first new song in years and years, it’s the first of four we have recorded and intend to release throughout the year, unless we split up again. The next ’Straight Pride Month’ will probably be out in June. It’s dead good an all. 

No Sky For Rishi is an allegory riffing on the infamous interview Rishi Sunak gave in June 2024 where he claimed to have ‘gone without’ due to not having SKY TV as a child. We saw this as a perfect example of how out of touch the people at the top are with the working class of today’s society. 

Whilst we see record numbers of people using food banks, people in full time work having to rely on benefits and other support just to survive – we had the (then) Prime Minister let us know that he was one of us, as he had gone without Sky TV as a child. It wasn’t dissimilar to the Queen, after a year of hardship and self sacrifice in 2018, telling us to ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ – placating the proles whilst sat in front of a golden chair. 

We captured this interview as a lasting testament to how these people do not understand us and never will understand us. Although the incident is long past now (hey it takes time and money to record music and we have neither of those things), we should keep these examples in mind next time we hit the polling stations. 

It’s available on all the streaming/digitals and our bandcamp over at

CANCELLED (not us, an event tonight)

Sorry but due to things we can’t control tonight has been called off.

Maybe the venue thought they had booked the ‘Those Fucking Snowflakes’ K-Pop band from Seoul and not the shit one from England, can’t blame them.

Anyway sorry, those two people that bought tickets can get their money back though.

Just in time for the elections, TFS return with a new line-up, less wigs and sassier outlook. Playing songs old and old, possibly a new one if they can get it sounding okay

It was decided the world could not cope without the musical entitiy known as Those Fucking Snowflakes – so it’s being re-assembled and re-animated in Preston, see you soon chums x

Hello, we’ve decided to call it a day as a band. No interesting drama or anything like that, just time to move on. A band with a name and lyrical content like ours was always going to struggle and we were always destined to burn out early without enough support.

We did more with this band than we ever thought. You will be hearing similar music from one of us soon with the rest of us doing more projects.

Thanks for all the support – especially Louder Than War Records, Tom Robinson and everyone who supported us and bought anything from us.

You’ll hear more from us soon but in a different form.

Our last ever gig is FRIDAY 6th MAY at Bootleg Social in Blackpool. 7pm to 10pm. Free entry.

Our new song ‘That’s Pretty Shitty Priti’ is available online on all digital services from this Friday, 29th April.
