A heavy, angular display face with faceted, chiseled terminals and consistent diagonal cuts that create a carved, geometric silhouette. Strokes are built from straight segments with sharp corners and minimal curvature, producing a rhythmic, broken-stem texture reminiscent of blackletter construction but simplified into bold, blocky shapes. Counters are tight and often polygonal, with occasional small apertures and triangular notches that emphasize the cut-in look. The overall color is dense and uniform, with compact spacing and strong vertical presence that reads best at larger sizes.
Best used for titles, posters, and branding where impact and atmosphere matter more than extended readability. It particularly suits music artwork, event promos, gaming/stream graphics, and themed packaging or signage that benefits from a bold gothic or industrial-medieval voice.
The tone is intense and theatrical, combining a medieval/blackletter heritage with a harsher, more aggressive edge. It feels loud and assertive—well suited to gritty, high-energy themes where a rugged, weapon-like geometry adds attitude and drama.
The design appears intended to evoke a modernized blackletter feel through hard-edged geometry—prioritizing strong silhouette, high visual punch, and a distinctive, ornamental rhythm in display settings.
Distinctive diagonal chamfers appear throughout, creating a cohesive ‘carved from a slab’ motif across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Many glyphs lean on vertical stems and clipped corners, which gives text a spiky texture and makes longer passages feel intentionally stylized rather than neutral.
