A rough, hand-rendered display face with heavy strokes and strongly irregular contours. Letterforms are built from brushy, slightly high-contrast strokes that create lumpy terminals, occasional spur-like protrusions, and uneven internal counters. The texture suggests wet ink or distressed printing, with small voids and chatter along edges that vary from glyph to glyph. Spacing and widths feel inconsistent by design, giving the alphabet a jittery rhythm while remaining broadly legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display settings such as posters, event flyers, album/mixtape artwork, game or film titling, and punchy brand moments that benefit from a distressed, handmade feel. It works well for short headlines and lockups where texture is a feature, and less well for long passages or small UI text where the rough edges can reduce clarity.
The overall tone is gritty and rebellious, evoking DIY posters, zines, and horror-tinged or underground aesthetics. Its distressed texture reads as intentionally imperfect and energetic, trading refinement for attitude and immediacy.
The design appears intended to mimic expressive brush lettering that has been worn down or overprinted, producing a gritty, analog texture. Its irregular widths, uneven stroke edges, and distressed counters prioritize character and mood over typographic neutrality, aiming for a bold, handmade statement.
Several glyphs show pronounced stroke breaks and interior speckling that will fill in at small sizes or on low-resolution output. The numerals and capitals carry the strongest personality and texture, while the lowercase maintains the same roughness with a more casual, handwritten cadence.
