After listening to many punk albums, I somehow came across the band 1208 and their album "Feedback is Payback". After hearing the song Just Anyone, I was hooked onto this band.

If you've ever heard of the Deviates, you can get an idea of what 1208 sounds like. The only thing is that 1208 is alot more powerful, yet at the same time more melodic than The Deviates are. This band is very chorus centered, and FIP gains alot of power from it.

1208 perfectly showcases their angst and melody on songs like "Outside Looking In", where the title is used a powerful refrain during the chorus. Other songs like Lies that Lie provide fast, furious skate-punk music, and excellent songs like "Just Anyone" provides both of these.

The songwriting talents of this band are also excellent. Few bands, no matter genre, can write this well, and it's an excellent talent 1208 doesn't put to waste. 1208 is another excellent Cali punk band, but with an attack only few other bands can match. This album, in short, is awesome.

I saw them i concert earlier this month with Pulley and Guttermouth and i must say that they are great. Good vocals, good music. A solid band for sure.

I remember when 1208 was Nonox 9 back in the day. THis is a really great band and they've really evolved. If you like punk check these guys out. ITs cool stuff.

I just checked out this band a while back on Amazon[.com], and the tracks sounded great, so I bought the CD. And man, it kicks arse! So much variety, and every track knocks you off your feet - powerful, upbeat tunes that leave you wanting more. Get this if you love punk rock of any kind, it's got a great blend!

1208 is a great band. they are a good punk band. everyone who likes pennywise or the deviates should get this album. it is superb.

they write great songs and the sound just like the offspring.espeacially sacred away.great album though. buy it if you like punk music
