This typeface is a slanted blackletter with compact, upright proportions and strongly faceted strokes that read as cut or chiseled. Letterforms are built from angular segments with pointed joins, wedge-like terminals, and occasional broken-stroke details that echo pen or broad-nib construction. Stems are heavy and dark, with moderate internal modulation and tight counters that create a dense texture in words. The rhythm is energetic and slightly irregular in width, giving a hand-rendered feel while maintaining consistent gothic structure across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for display work where texture and attitude are desired—posters, titles, packaging accents, band or album graphics, and brand marks with a gothic or vintage edge. It can also work well for short pull quotes or labels, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing to prevent the dense forms from clogging.
The overall tone is gothic and ceremonial, evoking medieval manuscripts, metal or tattoo lettering, and dark-fantasy aesthetics. Its sharp edges and steep slant add urgency and bite, producing a forceful, dramatic voice that can feel rebellious or ominous depending on context.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact take on blackletter: compact, slanted, and sharply carved to maximize drama and immediacy in large sizes while preserving traditional gothic cues.
Capitals are assertive and emblem-like, while the lowercase keeps a strong blackletter cadence with narrow apertures and distinctive angular bowls. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, keeping the set visually cohesive for headlines and short statements.
