A compact, heavy display face with irregular, brushy contours and visibly roughened edges. Strokes are thick and somewhat uneven, with soft corners and occasional bulges that suggest wet ink or worn printing. Counters are small and slightly inconsistent, and terminals often end bluntly with ragged texture. Proportions skew narrow overall, while individual letters vary in width, creating a lively, handmade rhythm in words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, gig flyers, album covers, titles, and bold callouts where texture is part of the message. It can also work on packaging or labels that want a rugged, hand-printed look, especially at larger sizes where the rough edges and blotting remain clear.
The font projects a gritty, DIY energy—part hand-painted sign, part distressed stamp. Its rough texture and uneven silhouette feel informal and rebellious, with a playful, slightly chaotic tone that reads as vintage, underground, and intentionally imperfect.
Likely designed to mimic hand-rendered or worn-printed lettering with strong presence and visible texture, prioritizing attitude and authenticity over pristine regularity. The narrow build and heavy strokes aim to deliver punchy display impact while maintaining a distinctly handmade, distressed voice.
Uppercase forms are simplified and blocky, while the lowercase keeps a casual, handwritten feel; the mix reinforces a poster-like, improvised character. The texture stays consistent across letters and numerals, so the distressed effect reads as a deliberate style rather than random noise.
