"At a brisk ten tracks, Ancient Dreams is a quick dose of what makes Marina great: heartfelt honesty from a fellow misfit consistently pushing the boundaries of pop".

"The unmistakably dramatic pop singer seeks the divine feminine, embracing a bold yet soft aesthetic that's more effective than some of her lyrics".

"Harking back to 2010's The Family Jewels, MARINA's self-penned Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land does away with the lowest common denominator electro inflections that marred her last full-length body of work".

"I starten af 10'erne var det godt og vel umuligt at snige sig uden om Marina and the Diamonds' tongue-in-cheek, dansegulvsvenlige popmusik (...) Siden da har hun skåret 'and the Diamonds' fra sit kunstnernavn, og Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land er nu andet album under det nye kunstnernavn ... Og én ting er helt sikkert: Marinas evner til at skrive solid, velklingende, højtempo popmusik er stadig intakt ... Marina har med Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land skabt endnu et stærkt popalbum proppet med sarkastiske og intelligente tekster, der samtidig er tro mod den DNA, hun tog verden med storm med for år tilbage".
