A stylized blackletter-inspired display face with narrow proportions, sharp angular construction, and pronounced stroke modulation. Terminals and joins are aggressively faceted and irregular, producing a torn, splintered edge effect that reads like distressed cutting or rough printing rather than smooth curves. Counters are compact and often polygonal, with frequent wedge-like notches that interrupt stems and bowls. Spacing feels tight and the rhythm is energetic, with slightly uneven silhouettes that heighten the handmade, abrasive texture in words.
Well suited for high-impact display settings such as posters, titles, band or event branding, and themed packaging where a dark or aggressive mood is desired. It works particularly well for short phrases, logos, and large headings where the jagged detailing can be appreciated without sacrificing clarity.
The overall tone is dark and dramatic, blending medieval gothic cues with a modern distressed attitude. It conveys menace and intensity, suggesting horror, occult themes, and rebellious subculture aesthetics. The rough edges add urgency and grit, making the font feel loud and confrontational.
The design appears intended to fuse blackletter structure with deliberate roughening to create a contemporary, gritty gothic display voice. Its sharp contrasts and fragmented edges prioritize mood and texture over neutral readability, aiming for immediate thematic impact.
Uppercase forms lean more traditionally gothic and monumental, while lowercase introduces more irregularity and bite, increasing texture in continuous text. Numerals match the same chiseled, broken-edge treatment, maintaining a cohesive look across alphanumerics. The face is most convincing at medium-to-large sizes where the distress details remain legible.
