Author's note

Hard Talk font by Marjan Bozic & Apostrophic Laboratories is a free dingbat typeface loaded with loud, irreverent symbols. Thick, inky silhouettes of running chickens, explosive bombs, syringes, and cheeky curves feel like they’ve been slapped onto a bathroom wall or photocopied for a punk zine. The icons hit hard at small sizes and turn into bold, black stickers when scaled up.

Using Hard Talk, you can add a jolt of attitude to zines, gig posters, underground party flyers, protest art, meme graphics, and edgy social posts. This free font works best when you let the symbols be the shout and keep text minimal-try pairing it with a plain, neutral sans serif to keep the chaos readable.
