Album title

In an interview with Stereogum, Everlast claimed he referenced his former group House of Pain in the album title because he was "trying to figure out what the record was, it's just kind of like to me it just represents everything I've ever done".[2] Later in the interview, he said that despite House of Pain last touring in 2017, "We brought it back a couple times for fun and it's just... it's just done. I can't do it anymore".[2] He also explained: "Another reason I called the album [Whitey Ford's House Of Pain] is because it's kind of a way [to] say, 'this is all that's left'".[2]
