A chunky, all-caps-and-lowercase display face with heavy, uneven strokes and strongly irregular contours. The letterforms read as solid silhouettes with rough, eroded edges and occasional notches, creating a blotchy, inked texture throughout. Counters are compact and imperfectly rounded, and curves and diagonals wobble subtly rather than following geometric construction. Spacing and letter widths feel loosely controlled, giving text a lively, slightly chaotic rhythm while remaining broadly legible at headline sizes.
Works best for short, high-impact copy such as posters, music and nightlife graphics, title treatments, and bold packaging or merch marks. The distressed edges and dense ink coverage make it most effective at larger sizes, where the rough texture reads clearly without filling in.
The overall tone is gritty and mischievous, with a DIY, rebellious energy. Its distressed texture suggests scuffed print or messy marker/ink, lending a loud, confrontational voice that can also feel cartoonish and fun depending on color and context.
Likely designed to deliver immediate attitude and texture, prioritizing expressive silhouette and distressed character over clean typography. It aims to mimic worn, handmade lettering for thematic display settings where roughness and energy are part of the message.
Uppercase forms are generally broad and blocky, while lowercase maintains the same rugged texture, with narrow, irregular stems in letters like i, j, l, and r adding extra jitter to word shapes. Numerals match the same eroded silhouette style, keeping a consistent, stamped look across the set.
