  1. The A.V. Club
    70
    In a way, the tinny sound and half-finished feel makes it seem more touching and direct than the final result might otherwise have been.

    Streetcore negotiates a resolution between the ethnocentric beats that hallmarked the two previous Mescaleros albums and the classic Clash sound that remained pivotal to Joe's live performances. [Nov 2003, p.110]
  3. Pitchfork
    69
    While the record fails at living up to the hyperbolic critical proclamations of London Calling's second coming, it does make for a pretty decent, if somewhat unexpected, sweat-soaked finale for The Clash's legendary golden boy.
