MARINA Releases ‘Venus Fly Trap’ Music Video
MARINA has shared her fourth and final single off her fifth album, Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land. The album is out this Friday, June 11. So far, MARINA has shared the title track, “Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land,” “Purge the Poison,” “Purge the Poison” along with Pussy Riot, “Man’s World,” and now “Venus Fly Trap.” Each music video has given fans countless looks along with colorful backdrops. By the end of the week, the album will belong to the fans.
The “Venus Fly Trap” music video opens up with the words “Popcorn” and “On with the Show,” followed by a 3,2,1, countdown. MARINA gives fans a show, presenting “Venus Fly Trap.” The first still of MARINA features her in a very vintage look. She is seen wearing an all-blue style complete with eyeshadow, a headband, and a dress. The next photo draws upon her movie-era look, as she draws upon the famous MGM intro mascot, Leo the Lion to present her short film. She sings, “I never quite fit in / To that Hollywood thing (Ah) / I didn’t play that game / For the money or the fame (Oh).”

As with her previous singles on the album, “Venus Fly Trap” seems to be another feminist anthem, as she sings, “Babe you’ll never stop me being me / I got the beauty, got the brains / Got the power, hold the reins. In an inspiring message, she is telling her fans that they are beautiful, bold, and intelligent.
