Author's note

The Black Bloc is a bold, striking font that exudes an old-school, gritty aesthetic. Designed by Choz Cunningham of the !Exclamachine Type Foundry, this display font features an angular, jagged letterform that commands attention. The italic styling adds a dynamic, kinetic energy, while the bold weight lends an unmistakable presence to any text it carries.

This font excels in design contexts that seek to convey a sense of rebellion, activism, or counterculture. Its raw, uncompromising style would be well-suited for event posters, album covers, or political messaging. Equally, The Black Bloc could add an impactful, attention-grabbing accent to editorial layouts, brand identities, or packaging design.
