RiotSquad

Riot Squad by Nick Curtis is a free retro display font with a theatrical, early-20th-century poster mood. The letters mix tall, elegant curves with sudden heavy black wedges and round dots, giving the alphabet a slightly unruly rhythm that feels decorative without turning fussy.

That makes it a natural fit for vintage branding, music flyers, cocktail menus, magazine cover lines, and title cards where a few words need attitude rather than neutrality. As a free font, RiotSquad works especially well for short headlines, monograms, and drop caps, since those bulb-like dots and sweeping dark shapes give even brief settings a strong period flavor.
