A roughened display face with condensed proportions and a dark, ink-heavy color. Letterforms show sharp, broken contours and uneven edges, as if stamped, torn, or worn away, producing strong internal texture and irregular counters. Strokes are mostly straight and vertical with occasional angular joins, giving a subtle blackletter/woodtype backbone beneath the distress. Spacing appears tight and the rhythm is jittery due to the varied edge erosion and slightly inconsistent widths across glyphs.
Works well for headlines and short bursts of text in posters, music artwork, game/film title treatments, and themed packaging where a distressed, dramatic presence is desired. It can also serve as a logo or wordmark in contexts that benefit from a rugged, vintage-meets-menacing character.
The font conveys a gritty, ominous tone that feels aged and abrasive, blending old-world drama with a raw, DIY energy. Its distressed surface reads like weathered printing or damaged metal type, creating a dark, confrontational mood suited to intense or theatrical messaging.
Likely designed to evoke distressed printing and timeworn signage while retaining a structured, old-style framework. The intention appears to be a high-impact display font whose texture and irregularity communicate grit, age, and intensity more than pristine legibility.
In longer lines the texture becomes a dominant feature, so readability is best at larger sizes where the counters and broken edges can breathe. Numerals and capitals carry the same rugged treatment, keeping a consistent, heavily worn voice across alphanumerics.
