A heavy, slanted display face built from chunky masses and sharply broken contours. Strokes feel carved and torn rather than drawn smoothly, with frequent spikes, notches, and uneven edges that create a restless silhouette. Counters are tight and irregular, terminals often end in abrupt facets, and the overall rhythm is bouncy and inconsistent by design. The lowercase has a tall, assertive presence, and figures and capitals share the same fractured, cut-out texture for a unified, aggressively decorative color on the page.
Best suited to posters, splashy headlines, album or mixtape artwork, game or stream titles, and energetic event promotion where a loud, irregular texture is an advantage. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes when set large with ample tracking, but it’s most impactful as a primary display element.
The font projects an unruly, mischievous energy—like loud hand-cut lettering or a battered comic title. Its jagged shapes and forward lean give it urgency and attitude, reading as fun but intentionally rough around the edges. The overall tone is more rowdy and offbeat than polished, suited to attention-grabbing statements.
The design appears intended to deliver a one-of-a-kind, distressed, cut-and-slash look that prioritizes personality over neutrality. Its irregular faceting and punchy weight suggest it was drawn to create instant impact, conveying motion and a deliberately messy, experimental edge.
At text sizes the broken edges and dense interior shapes can start to clump, so it benefits from generous spacing and short bursts of copy. The strong slant and irregular silhouettes create a distinctive texture that is most effective when used as a display voice rather than a workhorse text face.
