Dulli lights Leary's fire

Play it: Rescue Me Seasons 1-2
Play it: Rescue Me (Original Television Soundtrack)

In coordination with tonight's season three premiere of FX's Rescue Me, Nettwerk Records releases a soundtrack album with music featured on the television drama. Any show that uses The Von Bondies' "C'mon, C'mon" as a theme can't be too bad, and throw in a lot of Greg Dulli and Ray Lamontagne in the moody end credits and you've got the beginnings of an interesting compilation.

I've compiled nearly every song featured on the show in the first two seasons, and you'll note looking at the tracks on the release that several on the soundtrack have yet to be heard. Which means, in theory, this season will feature songs from Wolf Parade and the amazing new Twilight Singers album, Powder Burns. Why so much Greg Dulli (The Twilight Singers, Afghan Wigs)? Creator/actor Dennis Leary is a buddy of Dulli going way back, and Leary's especially been stumping for Dulli's art a lot this year (stereogum.)

i forget on the season finale of season one or two where tommy and his brother deal with a priest, and tommys brother ends up arresting the priest, they play a song during the the last few min. of the episode. my question is who sings that song and what was it called?

Episode 2.10 is where they confront and eventually arrest the brother priest (not a season finale) and the song is Snow Patrol's "Run"
