A heavy, chunky display face with compact proportions and an upright stance. Letterforms are built from bold strokes with noticeable high-contrast moments and abrupt transitions, giving counters and joins a carved, stamped feel. Edges are intentionally rough and uneven, with irregular bite-marks, nicks, and occasional interior speckling that reads like worn ink or distressed printing. The rhythm is energetic and slightly inconsistent across characters, reinforcing a handmade, distressed texture while keeping overall shapes clear at larger sizes.
Best suited for short display settings where texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, packaging accents, event flyers, and music or nightlife collateral. It can also work for logos or brand marks that want a rough, analog personality. For longer text, the dense weight and distressed edges are more effective in brief bursts or larger sizes.
The font conveys a gritty, mischievous tone—part punk flyer, part vintage novelty printing. Its imperfect contours and blotchy texture suggest analog production, lending attitude and immediacy rather than polish. Overall it feels bold, informal, and attention-seeking, with a friendly roughness that keeps it from becoming ominous.
The design appears intended to mimic distressed, ink-heavy printing with a handmade, worn impression. It prioritizes impact and character over refinement, offering a bold silhouette that remains legible while delivering an intentionally rough, textured surface.
Round letters (like O and Q) show irregular counters and uneven outlines, and several glyphs include small voids and scuffs that create a convincing worn-surface effect. Numerals are similarly rugged and heavy, matching the texture and mass of the caps and maintaining a cohesive, poster-ready color.
