A heavy, brush-driven display face with compact, rounded letterforms and visibly uneven contours. Strokes show frequent burrs, ink skips, and ragged terminals that create a stamped/painted texture, while counters stay mostly open for readability at larger sizes. Curves are slightly squarish and lumpy, and straight strokes wobble subtly, producing an intentionally imperfect rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works best in short, high-impact settings where texture is a feature: posters, headlines, event flyers, album/playlist artwork, and expressive packaging. The distressed edges and dense weight favor display sizes, especially on simple backgrounds where the rough contour can read clearly.
The overall tone is energetic and gritty, with a DIY, street-poster attitude. Its rough texture adds immediacy and a worn, analog feel that reads as casual, rebellious, and attention-seeking rather than refined.
Likely designed to mimic bold brush lettering or rough printed signage, prioritizing attitude and texture over geometric precision. The consistent distress pattern suggests an intentional, repeatable grunge effect meant to add character to modern layouts.
Uppercase forms feel blocky and assertive, while lowercase maintains the same brush texture with friendly, rounded silhouettes. Numerals are bold and punchy with consistent distressing, making them suitable for impactful numbers and short labels.
