A compact, heavy display face with irregular, brush-like contours and intentionally uneven stroke edges. The letterforms show rough interiors and blotchy counters, with small chips and gaps that suggest worn printing or dry-brush ink. Strokes are largely monoline in feel but vary subtly in thickness, and terminals tend to be blunt and soft rather than sharply cut. The overall rhythm is slightly bouncy, with minor per-glyph quirks that keep repetition from feeling mechanical while maintaining clear, readable silhouettes.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, event flyers, album artwork, game titles, and packaging where texture is part of the message. It also works well for badges, stickers, and social graphics that benefit from a DIY, screen-printed feel, while extended body copy will feel visually noisy.
The texture and wobble give the font a handmade, rebellious tone—equal parts gritty and humorous. It reads like stamped or brushed lettering used for DIY posters, zines, or horror-comedy packaging, projecting energy and attitude rather than polish.
The design appears intended to mimic expressive, imperfect ink application—somewhere between hand-painted signage and rough stamp printing—delivering a loud display voice with built-in texture for instant character.
Counters stay relatively open for a distressed style, helping legibility at display sizes, though the internal texture can fill in at small sizes. Uppercase and lowercase share the same rough, inked personality, and numerals match the bold, worn look for cohesive titling.
