A heavy, high-contrast display face with compact, mostly upright letterforms and aggressive distressed treatment. Strokes vary between thick black fills and thin, wiry outlines, with frequent breaks, nicks, and irregular counters that mimic torn paper or failing ink coverage. The silhouettes skew angular and blocky, but the texture introduces uneven rhythm and width shifts across glyphs, producing a deliberately unstable, hand-printed feel. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest mass, while lowercase mixes sturdy stems with more fragmented bowls and terminals for a rougher texture in running text.
Best suited to short display settings where the distressed detail can read clearly—poster headlines, horror or thriller titling, album/mixtape artwork, merch graphics, and high-impact event flyers. It can work for punchy pull quotes or labels when paired with a calmer text face, but it is not optimized for long-form or small UI text.
The overall tone is gritty and theatrical, suggesting menace, mischief, and DIY rebellion. Its worn, splintered marks read like distressed signage or a corrupted print, giving headlines an intentionally unsettling edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum character through erosion, breaks, and ink-like scarring while keeping a recognizable underlying structure. It aims for a bold, attention-grabbing headline voice that evokes worn print, grit, and theatrical darkness.
Texture is not uniform: some letters appear more filled-in while others show pronounced hollowed outlines and interior scarring, which adds visual noise and a collage-like energy. The distressed artifacts are prominent enough that small sizes will quickly lose clarity, but at larger sizes the rough contours become a defining feature.
