A slanted, angular display sans with sharply faceted contours and a hand-cut, knife-edged silhouette. Strokes stay fairly even in weight with abrupt corners, wedge-like terminals, and occasional notches that create a deliberately rough rhythm. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed in places, with polygonal counters (notably in O, Q, and 8) and a lively, uneven baseline/sidebearing feel that reads as intentionally handmade rather than mechanically uniform. Numerals follow the same carved, blocky construction, maintaining strong color and punch in short lines of text.
Best suited for display work where impact matters more than quiet readability—posters, flyers, album/merch graphics, game titles, and bold packaging accents. It also works well for short brand marks or section headers that want a gritty, DIY edge.
The font communicates an energetic, rebellious tone—part comic snarl, part cut-paper DIY. Its jagged geometry and forward slant add urgency and motion, giving it a playful menace that can feel punk, skate-zine, or horror-adjacent without becoming fully gothic or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to mimic a rough, hand-cut or carved construction while keeping the simplicity of a sans framework. Its goal is to deliver instant attitude and motion through angular geometry, consistent stroke weight, and an intentionally imperfect finish.
In longer phrases the irregular edges create a vibrating texture, which helps it stand out as a headline style but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. Round shapes are consistently polygonal, and diagonals are emphasized throughout, reinforcing the sharp, kinetic personality.
