Suplecs

New Orleans, LA, US · 1996–present · active
Suplecs are a New Orleans heavy rock trio formed in 1996 by Durel Yates, Danny Nick, and Andrew Preen, long tied to the city's stoner and sludge-adjacent underground. Their sound takes the weight of Sabbath-style riffing, the swing and heat of New Orleans rock and roll, and a rough sense of humor shaped by wrestling culture and local grit. Wrestlin' With My Lady Friend and Sad Songs... Better Days put the band on the wider stoner-rock map around the turn of the millennium, followed by Powtin' on the Outside Pawty on the Inside and Mad Oak Redoux. Hurricane Katrina disrupted the group's path, but Suplecs remained part of the New Orleans heavy scene, resurfacing with new material after long gaps rather than disappearing completely. Their later work keeps the low-slung groove but adds more mature emotional weight, touching on loss, addiction, family, and survival while still sounding like a band built around riffs first.
