A chunky display face with heavily distressed, irregular contours and torn-looking edges. The letterforms are compact and blocky with uneven stroke boundaries, giving a blotted-ink silhouette rather than clean geometric curves. Counters are small and sometimes partially closed by texture, and terminals end abruptly with ragged, organic bites. Spacing feels moderately tight and the overall rhythm is lumpy and intentionally inconsistent, emphasizing texture over precision.
Best used for short display settings such as posters, flyers, covers, and punchy headlines where the distressed silhouette can read clearly. It also fits themed title treatments for spooky, punk, or comedic “gross-out” aesthetics, and works well when paired with a clean sans or serif for supporting text.
The font reads as mischievous and gritty, with a DIY, poster-like attitude. Its rough, chewed texture and heavy silhouettes create a humorous menace that can swing from playful to horror-adjacent depending on context. The overall tone is attention-seeking and informal, suited to themes that benefit from imperfection and visual noise.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, irregular, distressed look that mimics worn printing or ink bleed while keeping recognizable, blocky letter structures. It prioritizes texture and personality over typographic refinement, aiming for immediate impact in display contexts.
Texture is baked into the shapes, so fine details can fill in at small sizes and the distressed edges can create dark spots in dense text. The numerals and lowercase maintain the same ragged treatment, helping the set feel consistent despite its intentionally uneven outlines.
