A condensed, heavy display face with a dry-brush, marker-like construction. Strokes show strong contrast and frequent texture breaks, with ragged edges, streaking, and occasional interior voids that suggest uneven ink coverage. Letterforms are mostly upright with simplified, poster-style geometry, but widths and stroke endings vary noticeably, creating a lively, irregular rhythm. Counters are generally open and rounded, while terminals often taper or fray, reinforcing the distressed, hand-rendered look.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, album covers, apparel graphics, and event flyers where the distressed brush texture can be a feature. It also works well for branding in contexts that benefit from an intentionally rough, handmade aesthetic.
The font conveys a gritty, DIY energy—part street-poster, part zine headline. Its rough ink texture and imperfect contours add urgency and attitude, giving text an assertive, rebellious tone rather than a polished or neutral voice.
The design appears intended to emulate bold hand-painted or marker lettering that has been dragged, overprinted, or weathered, combining compact proportions with expressive texture for attention-grabbing display use.
The texture is integral to the shapes, so the darkest areas can appear blotty while lighter strokes break into streaks, especially in curves and joins. Numerals match the same brush-worn treatment, with compact silhouettes and uneven stroke pressure that keep them consistent with the letters.
