A heavy, right-leaning display face with compact, chunky letterforms and sharp, angular terminals. The silhouettes are repeatedly cut through by diagonal slash textures, creating broken interior counters and an irregular, worn surface. Strokes show noticeable contrast and a slightly inconsistent rhythm, with letter widths and joins varying from glyph to glyph for an intentionally unruly texture. Numerals and capitals keep the same carved, striated treatment, producing a dense, high-impact color on the line.
Best suited to display applications where texture and personality are the goal: posters, punchy headlines, music or nightlife collateral, and expressive branding moments. It performs strongest at medium-to-large sizes where the diagonal distressing reads as intentional detail rather than noise.
The overall tone is loud and mischievous, with a scratched, street-art energy that reads as intentionally imperfect. Its diagonal gouges and jagged edges suggest motion and attitude, giving words a rebellious, handmade feel rather than a polished typographic voice.
Likely designed to deliver a one-off, attention-grabbing look by combining bold italic structure with a carved, slashed texture. The intent appears to be maximizing visual attitude and movement over neutrality, turning each glyph into a graphic element.
The diagonal cut pattern is consistent across the set and becomes a dominant visual motif, especially at larger sizes. In running text, the interior slashes create busy texture that can reduce clarity, while short words and headlines benefit from the dramatic surface effect.
