A heavy, forward-leaning display face with jagged, chiseled contours and irregular terminals that feel cut or torn from solid shapes. Forms are largely built from chunky strokes with angular notches, wedge-like spurs, and abrupt direction changes rather than smooth curves. Counters are tight and often faceted, producing a dense texture, while letter widths and silhouettes vary to create a lively, uneven rhythm across words. Numerals follow the same rugged, blocky construction, staying bold and highly graphic.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, headlines, cover art, logos, and product packaging where a bold, unruly voice is desirable. It can also work for game titles, event promos, and humorous or spooky novelty graphics, especially at larger sizes where the jagged detailing is clearly visible.
The overall tone is mischievous and high-energy, with an edgy, slightly chaotic feel that reads like a shouty headline or a comic sound effect. Its rough, carved personality evokes DIY poster lettering and playful aggression rather than refinement.
Designed to deliver maximum impact through a rough-hewn, angular aesthetic and animated rhythm. The intent appears to be expressive display typography that feels hand-cut and energetic, prioritizing character and attitude over neutral readability.
At text sizes the irregular cut-ins and tight apertures can reduce clarity, but the strong silhouettes keep words visually punchy. The slanted stance and frequent wedge terminals create a sense of motion that intensifies in all-caps settings.
