Tusk is a 2003 studio album by American alternative rock group Camper Van Beethoven, a song-for-song remake of the Fleetwood Mac album of the same name.

Tusk is the first album the band released following its reunion, and the band initially claimed that it was recorded before their break up. However, it was recorded in the period leading up to their reunion tour.

In an interview with the Chicago Tribune, bass player Victor Krummenacher admitted that some of the band members hate the 1979 album, saying that it was "like the Magnificent Ambersons of rock, a work that's supposed to be good, but is really just a cocaine-damaged horror of excess. Which is why we took it on, I suppose, and I think we improved upon it."
