In a recent interview with The Quietus, Halford was asked what attracted his band to having such an interesting bill on "Priest Feast". "It was the fact that [MEGADETH and TESTAMENT are] both very special in their own way and very good at playing their own type of metal," he replied. "We're all totally different to each other and if you come and see that show you're going to get three brands of metal and you're going to see something special from each act. That's what we've tried to do on this 'Priest Feast'. A broad display of different styles."
