A condensed, right-slanted brush script with sharp joins and a lively, uneven stroke rhythm. Letterforms show strong thick-to-thin movement and tapered terminals, with subtly ragged edges that mimic dry-brush or worn ink. Capitals are narrow and assertive with angular gestures, while lowercase stays compact with a relatively low x-height and brisk, forward motion. Numerals are similarly narrow and handwritten, maintaining the same textured, calligraphic contrast.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, event promotions, album or playlist artwork, product packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It also works well for punchy pull quotes and social graphics where an expressive, distressed brush look is desired.
The font reads fast and punchy, with a gritty, streetwise attitude. Its distressed brush texture adds urgency and a handmade authenticity that feels more rebellious than refined.
Designed to emulate quick, pressure-driven brush lettering with a deliberately worn finish, prioritizing gesture and attitude over smooth regularity. The narrow, italic construction concentrates energy and helps long words stay compact while still feeling hand-made.
Counters tend to be tight and interior spaces can close up in heavier strokes, so the face benefits from generous tracking and moderate sizes. The texture and contrast create a strong color on the line, making it more impactful for display than for long passages.
