I looks like a free font that was popular in the 90s that I've long since forgotten the name of.
As for the effect, though, that'd be really easy to emulate in Photoshop.

Thanks for those wonderful alternatives.
This font was pretty common on tacky paperbacks and New-Wave compilation albums c.1978-1981. I'm pretty sure it was a standalone typeface rather than a treated sans-serif such was its prevalence.
