One of the things that struck Oberst as he and the band went through twenty-plus years of music is that he may in fact have been writing the&nbsp;same song this whole time. Not sonically, of course, but conceptually. This last wave contains, in&nbsp;Noise Floor, early Bright Eyes songs so raw&nbsp;Oberst never even released them back in the day, as well as, in Cassadaga and The People’s Key, the band’s most polished and sophisticated&nbsp;albums. When Bright Eyes toured Cassadega they performed an epic 7 sold-out nights at NYC’s Town Hall. What’s more grown-up rock-star than that? And yet ...“Thematically those early songs are not that different than the songs I make now,” Oberst says, shaking his head.&nbsp;“There’s something affirming and disheartening about it. It’s like, have I really changed or grown? But maybe it’s just that I knew what I&nbsp;wanted to write about from the beginning."
