A heavy, all-solid display face with irregular, torn-looking contours and subtly lumpy stroke edges. Counters and apertures are largely collapsed, leaving letterforms built from chunky silhouettes rather than open interior spaces. The rhythm is intentionally uneven, with slightly shifting widths and a jittery baseline/edge feel that reads like a distressed print or cutout. Terminals and joins are blunt and softened, producing a compact, inked-in texture especially noticeable in diagonals and curves.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, cover art, badges, and logo wordmarks where texture is a feature. It can also work for themed packaging or editorial callouts that want a distressed, handmade presence, ideally at medium-to-large sizes.
The font conveys a gritty, handmade attitude—equal parts punk zine and playful camp. Its rough texture and filled-in forms create a loud, gritty voice that feels informal, rebellious, and a bit spooky or mischievous depending on context. The overall tone favors impact and character over refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, distressed display texture with a deliberately imperfect, tactile edge. By collapsing counters and emphasizing silhouette, it aims for maximum visual weight and a roughprinted character that stands out immediately.
Because interior openings are minimized, smaller sizes and dense setting can reduce letter distinctness; it performs best when given space and contrast. The distressed perimeter is consistent across glyphs, helping maintain cohesion even as individual shapes vary.
