Before their electrifying set opening for Powerman 5000 at Trees in Deep Ellum, Music Fiends sat down with Mercury, the enigmatic frontman of Swedish dark synth outfit Priest, for a one-on-one chat full of surprises.
Fresh off the release of their latest EP, Chaos, which dropped just last month, Priest are deep into their current U.S. tour, bringing their pulsing beats, gothic visuals, and post-apocalyptic cyber energy to venues across the country. (Check their website for tour dates…you don’t want to miss this one!)
In our conversation, Mercury opened up about his surprising love for Buc-ee’s button-down shirts (yes, really), teased an exciting “reboot” for the band, and dropped a few juicy hints about what fans can expect next. With their signature blend of mystery, melody, and mayhem, Priest continues to evolve, both musically and visually, cementing their place as one of the most exciting acts in the synth/industrial scene.
Get the full Priest experience, including exclusive perks, community, and more, via their Patreon and Discord.
