A heavy, condensed display sans with sharply angular construction and subtly irregular, hand-cut contours. Strokes are monolinear in spirit but vary slightly through faceted edges and tapered joins, creating a chiseled silhouette. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular, with compact apertures and frequent notches that give letters a cut-paper rhythm. Proportions lean tall and compressed, with occasional glyph-to-glyph width shifts (notably in diagonals and round forms), contributing to a lively, uneven texture in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact copy such as posters, headlines, album/playlist art, event flyers, and bold branding moments where character is more important than neutrality. It can work for logos or badges that benefit from a rough-cut, graphic voice, and for packaging or labels seeking a punchy, retro-leaning display style.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous—more punk zine and carnival poster than neutral signage. Its jagged, cutout-like shapes and animated rhythm make it feel energetic and a bit rebellious, with a retro display flavor that reads as deliberately imperfect and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while injecting an intentionally handmade, cutout texture. Its faceted geometry and tight counters suggest a display face built to stand out in large sizes and create a distinctive, rhythmic word shape.
In running text, the dense spacing and tight counters create a strong black presence; the irregular edges add sparkle but can also introduce visual noise at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same faceted, blocky logic, keeping headings cohesive, while the quirky lowercase shapes add extra personality.
