À l’Arrache is a book of 336 pages edited by Sébastien Escande, designed by Félicité Landrivon with Églantine Marcel, and published by Éditions Barbapop in 2021. It’s a collection of personal texts and archive documents on the underground music scene in Lyon from 1980 to today.

Phlegm is used on the cover (together with Eurostile Extended), for the table of contents, headings, and drop caps. The serif used for text is Syncro, in roman and italic styles. The grotesk sans distinguished by top-heavy forms for B, S, 3, 8 etc. is yet to be identified. [edit: It’s EB Trainer Grotesk, see comments.]

    Is not Eurostile, is Trainer Grotesk
  2. Thank you, Otto! Trainer Grotesk is indeed the previously unidentified sans. Eurostile Extended is used on the cover.
