Earlier this week Spin.com posted a digital version of “Rebooting Project Mersh: Hardcore Punks Threaten Indie Rock’s Hold on the Cutting Edge,” which originally appeared in the May/June 2012 issue of the magazine. In the article they speak with members of Fucked Up, Ceremony, Trash Talk and Slices (along with a closing quote from Ian Mackaye) about the steadily growing influence of hardcore on more mainstream indie rock.
