The piece sounds new to all fans’ ears. An inevitable vertical drop in terms of overall quality, originality, and maybe even 'honesty' (sometimes they sound a bit mannered to me...).

"If I said that this track alone justifies the entire album, I might be exaggerating, but the fact remains that from 'Panorama', only 'Touch And Go' has been pulled for compilations." ‘To truly veer, this album needed to run faster towards innovation. But to do so, you need the right engine, and the right engine is the quality of the tracks.’

Listen to it begin, 'Good Times Roll', with that riff that alone is worth an album. Ric Ocasek mixes the dream of ’70s rock ’n’ roll, the taste for the ’60s 3 and a half minutes, a surf or rockabilly guitar, a confidential and rock-romantic voice, just a hint of prog and a lot of joviality.

With Ocasek’s pieces he seems a bit caricatured when he hums the “Oh oh” and the sobs in “My Best Friend’s Girl”; it goes better when the atmospheres become darker. The band is mighty and demonstrates how the tracks from the first Cars LP... have a structure that, in the right hands, becomes pure rock, raw material to erect an imposing sound wall.

"Nexterday is homemade: the 'underproduction' in some tracks is a flaw; in other tracks, however, it’s a merit from a diametrically opposed point of view, namely the total absence of overproduction." "This album is certainly, along with 'This Side Of Paradise,' the most inspired of Ocasek’s career, and it’s much more imaginative, complex than 'Troublizing.'"

"This is a pure rock album, without frills, played as it should be, with geometrically squared tracks à la Ocasek." "The album served Ric Ocasek to show what he wanted/needed: he is and will always remain great."

Ocasek inserts too many 'yeah yeahs' because he knows he composed a 'lacking' piece. 'Race To Nowhere' with Alan Vega is the best episode, where the heart still vibrates and strikes hard.

In 1993, Ocasek wants it known in America too, that he has changed. At least halfway. Artists do well not to yield to conditions imposed by record companies, but do very poorly if they believe they can, by cutting here and pasting there, assemble a piece that could never stand on its own.

Ric Ocasek is a rocker a bit undecided whether to take a 'singer-songwriter' path or a bolder, harder role. If Ocasek had been a genius, it would have been a hard-rock-soul album as in the best track, 'Keep That Dream,' which is, a genuinely different album, a masterpiece.
