A heavy, brush-and-ink styled display face with rough, irregular contours and frequent interior voids that feel like dry-brush skip or worn stamping. Strokes are thick and assertive but visibly uneven, with chipped edges, occasional drips, and mottled texture creating strong character. Forms are generally upright with simplified, blocky construction; counters are small and sometimes partially closed, and terminals tend to end bluntly rather than cleanly. Spacing and letterfit read intentionally inconsistent, reinforcing a handmade, imperfect rhythm in words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact applications such as posters, gig and event flyers, album/mixtape artwork, streetwear graphics, packaging accents, and bold social media titles. It can also work for gritty editorial openers or section headers when paired with a cleaner companion for body copy.
The font conveys a gritty, DIY energy—loud, messy, and rebellious—closer to screen-printed flyers and marker lettering than polished typography. Its distressed texture suggests wear and urgency, giving headlines a gritty, underground tone.
The design appears intended to emulate rough brush lettering or degraded print—capturing the look of ink drag, worn edges, and imperfect coverage to deliver instant attitude and texture in display settings.
In running text the dense weight and broken counters can darken quickly, so it reads best with generous tracking and larger sizes where the texture and edge detail can breathe. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same roughened treatment, keeping the tone consistent across mixed-case settings.
