A heavy, all-caps–friendly sans with chunky strokes and noticeably rough, eroded contours throughout. Corners are softened by abrasion, counters are somewhat irregular, and curves show a bumpy, print-worn texture rather than smooth geometry. Proportions are generally compact with sturdy stems; the lowercase has simple, single-storey forms and the figures are similarly stout, giving the whole set a consistent, stamped/inked appearance.
Well-suited for posters, band flyers, album art, game titles, and packaging where a rough, analog feel is desirable. It can work for headlines, short blurbs, and logo-style wordmarks that need a gritty texture. For longer passages, it will be most effective at larger sizes where the distressed edges read as intentional character rather than visual noise.
This face conveys a gritty, hands-on energy, like ink dragged across textured paper. The irregular edges and uneven rhythm give it an offbeat, rebellious tone that feels analog and human rather than polished or corporate. Overall it reads as playful in a rough-edged way, with a slightly noisy, vintage-horror/punk sensibility.
The design appears intended to simulate distressed printing or worn lettering while preserving clear, sturdy letterforms. It prioritizes tactile texture and an imperfect outline to add attitude and immediacy, creating impact without relying on complex shapes or extreme distortion.
Stroke endings frequently look torn or blotted, producing a lively edge sparkle and uneven silhouette across words. Spacing and letter widths feel slightly inconsistent, reinforcing the hand-printed impression and adding motion to lines of text.
