At the December 1, 2007, show at Southgate House supporting the album, Pollard claimed he talked to Tommy Keene on the phone and told him the new album was Coast to Coast Carpet of Blood, though Keene misheard "Blood" for "Love". When Pollard corrected him, he claimed it should be "Love" because it was "groovier". The title stuck.
