The name "1208" came from the apartment number they first shared. They released two full-length studio albums on Epitaph Records: Feedback Is Payback (2002) and Turn of the Screw (2004). Their song "Fall Apart" from Turn of The Screw was featured on the popular PlayStation 2 and Xbox game Burnout 3.

In November 2006, the band was reported to be working on a third album,[1][2] however the album never materialized.

1208 reunited in 2009 for a one-off show with T.S.O.L.. All original members performed, with the exception of drummer Manny McNamara. Deviates drummer Donald Conrad filled in on drums.[3] Singer Alex Flynn is the nephew of Black Flag founder Greg Ginn and artist Raymond Pettibon.[4]
