A slanted, brush-driven display face with sharp, tapered terminals and visibly uneven stroke edges that mimic dry-brush ink breakup. Letterforms are compact and angular, with pronounced diagonal motion and frequent wedge-like joins. Strokes alternate between thick, loaded marks and thin, scratchy exits, creating a lively, fractured texture across words. Counters tend to be small and irregular, and the overall rhythm feels intentionally unpolished and energetic.
Best suited for short display settings where texture and attitude are desirable, such as posters, event flyers, album/merch graphics, game or film titles, and punchy social media headlines. It can work for brief subheads or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing, but the distressed texture makes it less appropriate for long passages or small UI text.
The font projects a gritty, high-energy tone reminiscent of hand-painted signage, punk or metal ephemera, and distressed action titling. Its rough edges and stabbing terminals add tension and urgency, giving lines of text a loud, confrontational presence.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of fast brush lettering while adding deliberate wear and breakup for a rough, dramatic finish. It prioritizes expressive motion and tactile texture over regularized geometry, aiming to deliver strong visual impact in themed display typography.
Texture is a primary feature: edges feather, notch, and chip, and many strokes end in bristles or torn-looking points. Uppercase forms read as emphatic and poster-like, while lowercase stays compact and similarly angular, maintaining a consistent, aggressive cadence. Numerals follow the same brush/tear treatment and feel suited to short, impactful uses rather than fine detail.
