2.5 average | Robbit | May 23rd 19 | FEEDBACK was a fairly mediocre vehicle for Rush to amuse themselves with playing songs by the bands that inspired them. It's one of those ideas that looked great on paper, but the reality failed to deliver anything truly worth revisiting. Playing cover songs has never been a real strength for Rush. The performances are a little too smooth, subdued, and rather unexceptional when viewed against their own original work. I suppose I've subconsciously avoided this album since it was released. Definitely the worst place to start for anyone exploring Rush's catalog for the first time.

2.5 average | Staker | November 24th 10 | I guess this one would mean more to me if I knew the originals. Nothing wrong with these covers, they're excellent Rush re-makes, but it doesn't really do anything for me. Try the versions in R30 instead.

2.5 average | CrazyFool84 | December 29th 08 | This one's just meh for me. Surprising as I love every other album they've put out, but this one just doesn't do it for me. I find Summertime Blues pretty annoying, despite the obvious impressive musicianship taking place. They do a pretty stand-up job on all their covers (though I find For What It's Worth a little disappointing) there just isn't enough here to grab me personally. I can see the diehard Rush fan wanting to own this, but as one myself maybe this one just comes down to a matter of personal preference. It might not help that I'm not a particularly big fan of any of the original songs (save the mentioned For What It's Worth) either. Crossroads is a pretty strong exception, as it displays Lifesson's skills pretty blatently.

2.5 average | met65 | July 25th 06 | Rush doing a cover album... don't get your hopes up. It's just short of being total crap.
