Author's note

Impact Label by Michael Tension is a free eroded display font with tall, uneven capitals and a rough hand-cut look. Its strokes shift between blunt slabs and narrow scratches, with irregular edges recurring throughout the lettering. The shapes feel improvised but retain a firm and readily recognizable silhouette.

For music posters and punk flyers, the scraped construction recalls handmade gig graphics. Horror game titles gain a tense, carved quality from the sharp cuts and wavering outlines. A distressed print texture links record sleeves with Halloween merchandise.
