A heavy, angular display sans with irregular, cut-paper geometry and chiseled corners. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation and frequent wedge-like terminals, creating a tense, faceted rhythm. The uppercase forms are compact and blocky, while the lowercase keeps a tall x-height with simplified counters and occasional asymmetry. Overall spacing feels slightly uneven by design, contributing to a hand-made, fractured silhouette that stays legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to short, punchy settings where texture and personality are an asset—posters, event flyers, game or film titles, and album/merch graphics. It can work for branding accents and packaging that benefits from a gritty, playful edge. For longer reading, it will be most comfortable when set large with generous spacing.
The tone is mischievous and energetic, with a slightly sinister, Halloween-adjacent edge. Its broken, off-kilter shapes suggest comic mayhem and DIY punk attitude rather than polished neutrality. The strong mass and sharp angles give headlines an assertive, attention-grabbing voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a loud, characterful display voice by combining extreme weight with jagged, irregular construction and visible contrast. Its consistent angular language across cases and numerals suggests a deliberate goal of creating a cohesive, high-impact style that feels hand-cut and animated on the page.
Many letters lean on straight segments and abrupt joins, producing a jittery texture in text lines. Counters are tight and often angular, and several glyphs appear intentionally non-uniform, reinforcing a handcrafted, collage-like feel. Numerals match the same chunky, faceted construction for consistent impact in mixed settings.
