Wow, that's vague.
As a rule of thumb I tend to consider the word "sweet," when not preceded by a cuss word or appropriate adverbial support, to be polite rather than enthusiastic.

One mans 'sweet' is another mans 'saccharine'.

I'm looking at you, 'skipping'.

Though punk rock/pink floyd has never been 'sweet' exactly. Has it?

I don't think he means 'sweet' as in, "she's a sweet little girl."

I think he means it like, "Man! This house is freaking SWEET."

Interesting that you couldn't illustrate that intention without adding 'freaking.'

He's a dying former NFL player that's getting ready to interview Pearl Jam describing their album as "sweet." Take it for what it's worth folks.

He was also probably told to not say much, if anything, about the album.

Plus for all we know this guys favourite album is backspacer in which case his apathy ( if that's what it is) wouldn't be a bad thing.

it was entirely made up.. posted somewhere rather public on the internets.. picked up by someone who posted it on the pit.. and a rumor was born.

i swear on my mother, it's fake.

This whole 'build-up' feels as if we're waiting for a bunch of friends to release a debut album but nobody knows what the fuck to do or how to release an album.

why is that? They seem to be leaking information at a rate sufficient to generate interest over the build between now and the eventual release date without exhausting what they have. They're pretty good at this. The roll outs, as far as I recall, for S/T and Backspacer were both strong.

why is that?
Because it's clumsy, long, boring and... well, it's not even building. How long do they think we'll wait before this starts to be fun?
