Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 10/30/03, p.88
3 stars out of 5 - "...STREETCORE continues the band's lightly amplified muscular-acoustic sound. Because his restless, barbed self will never be back to shake us awake, it's...fun to hear Strummer spill his subconscious..."
Spin - 01/04, p.102
"...The Clash-like 'Arms Aloft' finds old Joe summoning more spit than he has in years..." - Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly - 10/24/03, p.106
"...STREETCORE, with its loopy, eager-to-please vibe, is just the sort of punky reggae party [the late Joe Strummer] was born to throw..." - Rating: B+
Q - 11/03, p.123
4 stars out of 5 - "...It's 'Silver & Gold', a reworking of a Bobby Charles song, that brings home the poignancy of this release..."
Uncut - 01/04, pp.84-7
Ranked #11 in Uncut's "Albums Of The Year 2003"
Uncut - 11/03, p.110
5 stars out of 5 - "...STREETCORE is something to celebrate, proof that, right up to his death, Joe Strummer was working at the peak of his powers..."
Magnet - 11/03, p.107
"...Joe Strummer gets in the last word: an unnervingly powerful, cathartic final statement..."
CMJ - 10/13/03, p.8
"...The 10 songs of STREETCORE prove Strummer still had a lot to say, and he packed it into some of his most memorable choruses..."
Mojo (Publisher) - 01/01/04, p.59
Ranked #11 in Mojo's "The Best of 2003"
Mojo (Publisher) - 11/03, p.131
