Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land, Venus Fly Trap & Purge The Poison are all better. I like the two songs you mentionned, but them being better than any song on her new album?

Tropico Angel 2,100 Posted July 5, 2021 Do we think she still might release a deluxe version (?) of this album? I think she was alluding to releasing it if the album did well but I’ve heard it hasn’t done that well? 0 Quote Everytime I try to fly, I fall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glitter Boy 16,558 Posted July 7, 2021 I'm amazed at my two moods while listening to Ancient Dreams (album): I can be either "The seeds we planted grew But not like roses do We had the thorns and leaves But the buds, they never bloomed" Or "I got the beauty, got the brains Got the power, hold the reigns I should be motherfucking crazy Nothing in this world could change me" Brilliant 3 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, the production is fun but my god, the lyrics are so cringey I can barely stand to listen to it, i don’t understand how it’s so high on some people’s rankings. and same - I’d 100% prefer “janky” tfj than something way way way too polished like l+f. 2 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poetic jess 2,340 Posted July 7, 2021 Still impressed with ADIAML. Marina deserves more recognition for her work. The lyricism, the production, the music videos, the LOOKS… honestly I’d rate this album at the same level as Froot. It has some of her best work. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vrtvie 2,264 Posted July 8, 2021 1 hour ago, abombnd said: L+F really just NOT fit with these other four lmfao Why not though? Most of the tracks there are either about or inspired by or even created by Jack himself and now we got Ancient Dreams whose half is about him too. L+F partially feels more like a collaboration project between Marina and Clean Bandit honestly, but that's what happens when u give so much of urself to another person when you're in (toxic) love. It would make little sense if the album got erased completely from her discography or seen as "the-should-have-not-happened" type of album especially seeing that she's such a personal lyricist. Now we can just wait for another album that has nothing of him. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What do you mean why not??? there’s an obvious difference in style between the other four and L+F lolol - not only the toned down minimalistically simple production but in general the visuals were so….. plain. songwriting wasn’t great either 29 minutes ago, new gods said: wow this album really is bad outside of the singles pandora’s box and new america are mediocre but…. no way u just called ilybilmm, flowers, and goodbye really bad 0 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexspears 512 Posted July 8, 2021 after almost a month with it-- i'm still quite pleased with this album!!! i'm happy it was short and sweet. if i could make one criticism, it would be either add one more uptempo song, or delete a ballad (highly emotional people tbh) flowers is top tier for meeeee. i love the lyrics & the melody. it hits different! 7 Quote Here is a link to all streaming services where you can stream my new single, "The Prophecy" Critics are saying: "It's pretty much the best thing ever" - Anthony Fantano and "It would be super cool if you listened to it. It may surprise you with how not-bad it is. It's actually pretty good" - a genuinely unbiased and actual casual pop music listener Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
