One Direction, The Extremes, Eagles and Judas Priest (4)
I believe the answer is:
east
'eagles and judas priest' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'one direction the extremes' is the wordplay.
'one direction' becomes 'eastsoutheast' (east southeast is a kind of direction).
'the extremes' means to remove the middle letters.
'eastsoutheast' with its middle taken out is 'EAST'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for east that I've seen before include "On most maps it's right!" , "Bridge player" , "Direction of the rising sun" , "major point" , "One of four at table" .)
