A rough, hand-drawn italic with brushy strokes and ragged, distressed contours. Letterforms lean consistently to the right, with tapered terminals, occasional ink-blob build-ups, and broken edges that create a scratched, dry-brush texture. Curves and bowls are slightly uneven and organic, and stroke thickness varies within single strokes, giving the set an irregular, lively rhythm. Spacing and glyph widths feel loosely controlled, contributing to an intentionally imperfect, handmade silhouette across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited for short display settings where texture is a feature: posters, punchy headlines, band or album art, branded stickers, packaging accents, and event promotions. It can also work for pull quotes or short captions when a handmade, distressed tone is desired, but the rough edges may reduce clarity in long-form text or at very small sizes.
The overall tone is raw and expressive, balancing a casual handwritten feel with a gritty, distressed edge. It reads energetic and a bit rebellious, suggesting DIY aesthetics, underground culture, or rough-printed ephemera rather than refined editorial typography.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush lettering with worn ink and imperfect printing, delivering a lively italic slant and tactile texture. Its irregular outlines and variable stroke energy prioritize personality and impact over neutrality, making it well suited for themed, expressive typography.
Uppercase forms are bold and attention-grabbing, while the lowercase stays compact and quick, maintaining the same worn-brush texture. Numerals share the same irregular stroke behavior and slightly wobbly baselines, helping the font keep a consistent, sketchy voice in mixed content.
