Speaking to NME.com at the Sonisphere festival Aled Phillips said: "It's kind of set in this Mad Max, kind of Warriors world where people are all reduced to their carnal instincts and desires and are at their most basic.
"There's two main characters, one's called Annie May, and the other is Gold Blood and it's narrated by them going on this journey. It's kind of an exaggerated version of my own life."
Phillips also referred to two other artists who have been inspirations in different ways: "I'm a massive fan of My Chemical Romance and I love their ambition and their drama, but we also took a lot from Born To Run. Bruce [Springsteen] had this massive theatrical tip around then and we've taken a lot of that on board with In Gold Blood."
In Gold Blood is scheduled for release on 15 August and was produced by A frontman Jason Perry.
