A heavy, slanted display face with chunky strokes and aggressively irregular contours. Letterforms have ragged, torn-looking edges and occasional notches that suggest dry-brush or distressed ink, while counters stay mostly open and legible despite the rough texture. The silhouette is dark and weighty, with slightly uneven proportions and a lively, handmade rhythm that creates a jittery baseline feel in text.
Works best at medium to large sizes where the distressed edges can be appreciated without collapsing into noise. It suits posters, album/track artwork, festival and night-event flyers, horror or thriller titling, and branding that wants a rough, handcrafted edge. Short headlines and punchy phrases benefit most from its dense, textured silhouette.
The font projects a gritty, confrontational tone—like weathered poster lettering or ink dragged across rough paper. Its rough texture and energetic slant give it a rebellious, street-level attitude that can also read as spooky or ominous depending on context.
The design appears intended to mimic distressed, hand-applied lettering—combining a bold, attention-grabbing structure with roughened edges to add character and grit. The goal seems to be immediate impact and atmosphere rather than neutral readability in long text.
Texture appears consistently applied across caps, lowercase, and numerals, so the distress reads as a deliberate surface treatment rather than random noise. The irregular terminals and bumpy curves add motion and urgency, making the face feel more like stamped or painted lettering than a polished digital sans.
