Ace Rubina – Court Order – Split Between A Dream And A Failure – Drum Play-through

Ace Rubina has been actively playing the drums for over twenty years, working with countless bands, until 2017 where he co-founded the Brooklyn-based metallic hardcore band Court Order. Ace cites his influence from a wide background notably Deftones’ Abe Cunningham and Mark Castillo from ex-BTBAM/Bury Your Dead fame. Court Order came together from mutual friends wanting to travel and perform heavy music live. The band delivers a punishing assault of heavy, mixing genres to create their unique brand of metal and hardcore.

Court Order, a hardcore/deathcore band formed in February 2019, began touring relentlessly sharing the stage with Left Behind, Bodysnatcher, Ingested, Falsifier, and Slaughter to Prevail.  

Court Order brings dissonant riffs blended with heavy metallic aggression, smashed alongside brutal grooves, delivered by a dual seven-string baritone assault and upbeat tempos. Paralleled with double bass, two-step, and occasional blast beats; Court Order aims to deliver a battleground for a supreme and atmospheric auditory experience. With a wide range of influences, the band dishes out compact song lengths; a great testament to the band’s efficiency. Highlighting the best of what fans crave when spending a weekend retreat at This Is Hardcore or FYA Festivals.

Court Order self-released the self-titled EP in August 2020, then inked a Worldwide Deal with Extreme Management Group in December 2020. The band has recently released the follow-up “Split Between A Dream And A Failure”, a two-song release, with Blood Blast Distribution (powered by Nuclear Blast Records).

Court Order is currently at work on a full-length album, which will feature a collection of ten tracks aimed to elevate their animated, impactful sound.
