A condensed, hand-drawn print style with brush-ink construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes show tapered terminals, slight wobble, and occasional ragged edges that read as dry-brush or ink drag. Counters are compact and sometimes asymmetrical, with uneven joins and subtle baseline and cap-height irregularities that reinforce the handmade rhythm. Overall spacing is tight and the letterforms stay mostly upright, with a lively, imperfect texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short display settings where texture is an advantage: poster headlines, horror or thriller titling, album/playlist covers, and attention-grabbing flyers. It can also work for packaging accents or labels when you want a raw, inked voice, but extended body copy may feel busy due to the rough edges and tight, narrow rhythm.
The font conveys a tense, dark-leaning energy—expressive and slightly sinister, like handwritten signage made with a loaded brush. Its rough texture and sharp tapers add urgency and attitude, while the narrow proportions keep the tone punchy and emphatic.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, expressive brush lettering while staying legible in a compact footprint. Its deliberate irregularities and ink-drag artifacts prioritize personality and atmosphere over typographic neutrality.
Uppercase forms feel more poster-like, while the lowercase retains a quick handwritten cadence; together they create a mixed, human look rather than a polished display face. Numerals follow the same brushy contrast and condensed stance, helping headlines and short bursts of text feel cohesive.
