Feedback is an EP by Canadian rock band Rush, released in 2004.[1] The record features eight covers of songs that were influential for the band members during the 1960s. The outing marked the 30th anniversary of the release of Rush's debut album, which featured the original lineup of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and John Rutsey. The tour in support of the Feedback album was called the R30: 30th Anniversary Tour. The album was remastered and reissued in 2013 as a part of the box set The Studio Albums 1989–2007.

Rhapsody praised the EP, calling it one of their favourite cover releases.[6] AllMusic reviewer Thom Jurek called the track list "amazing" and said "None of these tunes are done with an ounce of camp. What the listener encounters is a Rush that has never ever been heard before."[2]
