Monique Pym from Reliqa: The Name of Your Destiny

Friends, Romans, Metalheads, lend me your ears.
 
Bad news charm h8rs, Monique Pym from Reliqa is charming AF.

In this installment the Reliqa frontwoman educates me on the difference between 'prog' and 'progressive', discusses the metal tradition and pitfalls of mispelling your band's name, and the meaning of Mr. Magic.
 
I also sound quite drunk during the interview.

Speaking of drunk, I also sound extremely drunk during the protracted waffling that bookends the interview. I don't even drink. I'd just consumed gallons of caffeine. Skip to 12:46 if you're just here for the actual quality content and not my terrible Australian accent, ramblings about petrol flavoured Pepsi and Scottish fighting.
 
Do I sound like this all the time?
