A heavy, display-oriented face built from chunky strokes that are repeatedly interrupted by horizontal slices and irregular voids. Counters and terminals feel carved away, producing a jagged, fragmented silhouette and uneven internal rhythm from letter to letter. Despite the disruption, the underlying forms remain recognizable and largely vertical, with a strong black presence and abrupt transitions between thick masses and cutout gaps.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, cover art, bold headlines, and promotional graphics where texture and attitude are the point. It can also work for title cards or branding moments that benefit from an intentionally damaged or experimental look, but will be less comfortable for long passages or small sizes due to its broken interior shapes.
The overall tone is unruly and disruptive, like type that’s been scraped, glitched, or aggressively weathered. It reads as mischievous and confrontational, pushing a DIY, underground energy rather than refinement or neutrality.
The design appears intended to turn familiar letterforms into a striking, distressed graphic voice by slicing and eroding the strokes while preserving legibility. It prioritizes texture, motion, and visual noise to create instant character and a memorable, rebellious presence.
The repeated banding and broken contours create a vibrating texture in lines of text, especially where gaps align across adjacent letters. Spacing and edge irregularities contribute to a deliberately unstable color on the page, making the font feel more like a graphic pattern than a conventional text face.
