Author's note

The Daily Blah font by Giles Edkins and Kenny Gawthrop-Vinden is a free gothic modern typeface. Its letterforms slice across the line with sharp, calligraphic strokes, stripping old-world blackletter down to clean, angular essentials. The rhythm feels both scratchy and sleek, like ink drawn with a metal nib on glossy paper, giving your titles a slightly subversive edge without becoming unreadable.

Using The Daily Blah, you can add dark, stylish character to posters, zines, album covers, game titles, event branding, and bold social graphics. This free font shines at larger sizes, where the knife-like curves and tight, vertical texture really come through; pair it with a plain geometric sans for body copy to keep things balanced and legible.
