A tall, condensed display face with heavy strokes and sharply irregular contours. Letterforms are built on simple, blocky structures, but the edges are aggressively chipped and torn, with uneven outer silhouettes and occasional interior nicks that suggest degraded ink or rough cutting. Curves are narrowed into vertical ovals, joins are blunt, and terminals often look fractured rather than cleanly finished. Spacing and glyph widths vary slightly, giving lines a restless rhythm while remaining clearly legible at larger sizes.
Best suited for short headlines and display settings where the distressed surface can be appreciated—posters, cover art, title cards, and promotional graphics. It also works well for themed packaging or signage that aims for a worn, rough, or ominous impression, especially when set large with generous tracking.
The overall tone is gritty and high-impact, with a pulpy, confrontational energy. Its distressed texture reads as worn, raw, and a bit chaotic, evoking handmade signage and rough print artifacts rather than polished typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through condensed, heavy letterforms while adding a deliberately degraded finish to imply age, grit, and rough production. The controlled underlying structure keeps words readable, while the irregular edges provide character and attitude.
The texture is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with frequent vertical scarring and chipped corners that become a defining feature. The condensed proportions and heavy mass create strong silhouette recognition, but the distressed detailing can fill in or blur at small sizes or low-resolution reproduction.
