This typeface is built from sharp, faceted strokes with wedge-like terminals and frequent triangular counters, creating a carved, polygonal silhouette throughout. Forms lean on diagonals and pointed joins rather than curves, with occasional off-axis cuts that introduce a deliberately irregular rhythm. The capitals are tall and emphatic, while the lowercase keeps a similarly angular construction, mixing simplified, glyphic shapes with more conventional stems. Numerals follow the same chiseled logic, using hard corners and diamond/triangle motifs for strong visual cohesion.
It performs best in short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logos, packaging accents, and title cards where its angular details can be appreciated. It’s a strong fit for music and nightlife visuals, fantasy or adventure-themed games, and Halloween/occult-adjacent promotional work. For longer passages, it’s more effective as a display face paired with a simpler companion for body text.
The overall tone feels ritualistic and rebellious at once—part runic inscription, part hand-cut stencil. Its spiky geometry and uneven cadence give it a loud, mischievous energy, suited to dramatic or tongue-in-cheek messaging. The design reads as intentionally “rough-hewn,” prioritizing character and attitude over neutrality.
The design appears intended to evoke a carved or inscribed aesthetic using consistent monoline weight and aggressively angular geometry. By exaggerating wedges, triangles, and asymmetric cuts, it aims for instant recognition and a strong themed voice rather than conventional readability. The cohesive use of faceted counters across letters and numerals suggests a deliberate, motif-driven display concept.
Triangular apertures and diamond-like bowls recur as a signature motif, helping the design stay recognizable even when letterforms become highly stylized. Spacing and letter widths feel intentionally varied, adding to the handmade, cut-from-plate impression in text. The sharp corners and dense black shapes can visually clump at smaller sizes, while larger settings showcase the internal angles and distinctive counters more clearly.
