‘Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land’ will be Marina’s fifth studio album, and it is due to be released on 11th of June this year. The first single from the album ‘Man’s World’ was released in November last year, along with two remixes and a stripped version. The second single ‘Purge The Poison’ was released in April and the third single of the same name of the album in May this year.
Marina has released three albums under the name Marina and the Diamonds – ‘The Family Jewels’, ‘Electra Heart’ and ‘Froot’ in 2015. In 2018, she decided to drop Diamonds from her stage name and to simply go with Marina. In an interview with Dazed, she said: “It took me well over a year to figure out that a lot of my identity was tied up in who I was as an artist, and there wasn’t much left of who I was.” Since the name change, she has released her fourth album ‘Love + Fear’ in 2019.
