Grunge fonts are a loosely defined group of fonts that encourage designers to break out of "clean" design and create something dirty. Distressed, uneven, incomplete--grunge fonts aren't intended to be pretty, and oftentimes aren't even useful.

In this blog, I'll be talking about the history of grunge fonts, some good foundries for acquiring them, and even how to make your own. I'll probably delve into some overall grunge concepts as well, and talk about using grunge fonts in logo design.
