A heavy, right-leaning display face built from chunky strokes that appear repeatedly “shredded” by diagonal, triangular bites. Edges are consistently serrated, creating a strobing rhythm along stems and bowls, while counters are partially obstructed by intrusions that break up interior space. Letterforms are compact and blocky overall, but the aggressive notching introduces a restless texture that reduces smooth curves into faceted, angular silhouettes. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, and the figures follow the same jagged logic, producing a highly textured line of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where the jagged texture can read as a deliberate graphic effect: posters, titles, cover art, game/UI splash screens, and promotional headlines. It works especially well when paired with a clean sans or mono companion for body copy, reserving this face for emphasis and branding moments.
The font conveys a frantic, hacked-together energy—part industrial warning label, part digital interference. Its sharp teeth-like cuts and slashed texture feel confrontational and kinetic, suggesting speed, distortion, and disruption rather than refinement or calm readability.
Likely designed as an experimental headline font that foregrounds texture and motion over neutrality, using repeated diagonal notches to simulate glitch, tearing, or abrasive friction. The intent seems to be instant attention and a distinctive silhouette in display sizes, with a unified “damaged” aesthetic across the character set.
The diagonal bite pattern is the defining motif and remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set strong visual coherence despite the irregular contours. At smaller sizes the serration can visually fill in counters and soften differentiation between similar shapes, while at larger sizes the texture becomes the primary graphic feature.
