A heavy, ink-driven sans with uneven, ragged contours and subtly blunted terminals. Strokes feel press-printed or markered, with consistent roughness along outer edges that creates a mottled silhouette without collapsing counters. Letterforms are generally simple and blocky, with straightforward geometry that’s been intentionally distressed; rounding is irregular and corners appear chipped rather than sharp. Spacing reads slightly loose and the overall texture becomes more pronounced as lines of text build up.
Best suited for display settings where texture is part of the message: posters, editorial headers, music and entertainment artwork, streetwear-style branding, and rustic or grunge packaging. It can work for short blocks of copy at larger sizes, especially when you want the distressed surface to read clearly.
The font conveys a gritty, analog attitude—like DIY printing, worn signage, or photocopied ephemera. Its rough edges and dense color give it an assertive, rebellious tone that can feel vintage, underground, or intentionally imperfect.
Designed to deliver a strong, legible grotesque-like foundation while adding convincing wear and print artifacts. The intent appears to be capturing the immediacy of hand-inked or rough-printed lettering, giving designers a fast route to an imperfect, tactile look.
Capitals have a poster-like presence, while the lowercase stays compact and sturdy, helping paragraphs retain a steady rhythm despite the distressed outlines. Numerals match the same rough, inked texture and feel suited to bold callouts rather than fine typographic detail.
