The third episode of Season 2 featured six songs in total. That's fewer than the previous two episodes, but they're all great choices.

For a third consecutive week, Dexter: Resurrection is back with another episode, and this one takes the story in some interesting new directions. Episode 3 delivers many exciting moments that are sure to stick with Dexter fans, while also giving us a much clearer idea of where the story is heading.
As usual with this sequel series, some of the episode's most memorable moments are accompanied by carefully chosen licensed music. While the selection was actually smaller this time around, every track fits its respective scene perfectly.
A total of six songs are featured in “Live Free and Die,” with tracks spanning five different decades. As he has done since the first season of Dexter: Resurrection, Oscar-winning producer Sean Fernald once again oversaw the music selection and provided us with the complete list, so you won't have to miss a single song.
Below, you'll find every track featured in the latest episode, along with its artist, year of release, and the scene in which it appears.
