A heavy, hand-drawn display face with irregular outlines and a visibly “inked” texture running through strokes and counters. Letterforms are mostly upright with simple, blocky construction, softened by wobble and inconsistent stroke edges that mimic quick marker or brush work. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, contributing to an uneven rhythm; counters are often partially mottled or broken, especially in rounded shapes. The overall silhouette stays legible, but the distressed interior texture and rough contours dominate the surface.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings where texture is an asset: posters, headlines, event flyers, album/cover art, and bold packaging callouts. It can work in brief passages at larger sizes (as in the sample), but the distressed interior and uneven rhythm can reduce clarity at small sizes or in dense text blocks.
The font projects a scrappy, DIY energy—casual, rebellious, and slightly messy in a deliberate way. Its roughened fill and jittery edges feel like photocopied flyers, zines, or hand-lettered signage, balancing humor with grit. The tone is informal and attention-grabbing rather than refined or corporate.
Likely designed to capture a rough, handmade print feel—combining sturdy, readable letter skeletons with deliberate distress and inky irregularity for strong visual personality. The goal appears to be immediate impact and a tactile, analog vibe rather than typographic precision.
Uppercase forms read chunkier and more poster-like, while lowercase retains the same distressed treatment with simpler, compact shapes. Numerals follow the same hand-inked logic, with imperfect curves and occasional angular turns that keep the set cohesive.
