A heavy, brush-drawn display face with chunky strokes and noticeably ragged, dry-brush edges. Letterforms are upright and mostly monoline in construction, but the texture creates strong perceived contrast and uneven color across each glyph. Counters are generally open and rounded, with occasional ink blobs and tapered stroke terminals that suggest quick marker or paint strokes. Widths vary from narrow to wide, giving the alphabet an irregular rhythm, while overall proportions stay simple and legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to short, bold applications such as posters, headlines, album/cover art, and promotional graphics where texture is a feature rather than a distraction. It also works well for packaging accents and event flyers, especially when paired with a clean sans for supporting text.
The texture and uneven edges give the font a raw, energetic tone that feels handmade and imperfect in an intentional way. It reads as casual and expressive, with a slightly unruly, street-poster attitude that can swing from playful to gritty depending on context.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand-painted lettering with a deliberately rough print texture, delivering high-impact display typography that feels informal, tactile, and attention-grabbing.
The distressed texture is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a strong stamped/painted impression. The heaviest areas can close in at small sizes, so the face benefits from generous sizing and breathing room.
