A tightly condensed, right-leaning display face with blackletter-influenced construction and strongly angular joins. Forms are built from narrow, vertical stems and tapered terminals, with frequent wedge-like cuts and pointed corners that create a faceted, engraved rhythm. Counters are small and irregular, and the overall texture is dark and compact, with lively stroke modulation that emphasizes sharp inflections over smooth curves. Numerals follow the same narrow, spurred construction, maintaining a consistent, tall silhouette across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, event flyers, album artwork, mastheads, and logo wordmarks where a condensed, aggressive texture is desirable. It can also work for packaging or label-style typography when used at larger sizes with careful spacing to preserve clarity.
The font projects a gothic, dramatic tone with a vintage printed-posters feel. Its sharp, weapon-like terminals and dense rhythm suggest intensity and theatricality, lending an ominous, ritual, or metal-adjacent atmosphere without becoming ornamental to the point of illegibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-drama blackletter flavor for contemporary display use. Its narrow proportions and sharp cuts prioritize striking silhouette and rhythmic texture over comfortable long-form reading.
In text settings the tight spacing and steep slant create a fast, jagged horizontal flow; the look is most successful when given generous tracking and plenty of line height. The uppercase reads like stylized titling caps, while the lowercase keeps the same compressed, angular logic, reinforcing a cohesive, poster-driven voice.
