A chunky, all-caps-forward text face with heavily roughened outlines that resemble dry-brush or worn stamp impressions. Strokes are generally thick but fluctuate subtly, with ragged edges and occasional nicks that create a mottled silhouette. Counters tend to be small and irregular, and curves look slightly flattened or dented, reinforcing a printed-by-hand feel. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, giving lines a lively, uneven rhythm while maintaining clear letter differentiation.
Best suited to display settings where texture is a feature—posters, covers, apparel graphics, labels, and short headline copy. It can work for brief accent text in branding or packaging where a rough, handmade imprint is desired, but extended body text may feel heavy and visually noisy at small sizes.
The overall tone is gritty and informal, with a handmade, DIY energy that reads as deliberately imperfect. It suggests distressed printing, punk-zine ephemera, and rustic signage—expressive and a little chaotic rather than refined or technical.
Likely designed to deliver an immediate distressed, ink-on-paper impact—capturing the look of rough printing or brushy marker lettering while staying readable in bold, attention-getting phrases.
The lowercase appears compact with a relatively small x-height compared to the capitals, so mixed-case text leans toward a quirky, uneven texture. Numerals share the same worn edge treatment and remain legible, though the rough perimeter can visually darken dense passages at smaller sizes.
