Bruised Zero font from the Bruised family, is a free grunge decorative font. Its letterforms feel like they were scratched in with a bent wire-thin, jagged strokes with bruised gaps and a shaky, handmade rhythm. That raw, broken-line texture gives headlines an instant “found footage” edge without needing extra effects.
Using Bruised Zero, keep sizes big so the scuffed details stay readable, and pair it with a clean sans for body copy. This free font shines on underground gig posters, zines, horror titles, glitchy album art, skate stickers, gritty streetwear logos, game splash screens, and distressed packaging where you want the type to look damaged on purpose.
