"Final Transmission", great acoustic punk rock from the Street Dogs' 2006 album, "Fading American Dream".

Mike McColgan, singer/songwriter for Street Dogs sings of war from personal experience as a veteran of the first U.S. war against Iraq. After returning home to Boston from the Middle East, he helped found the now-famous Dropkick Murphys as their original singer. He then left the DKMs to pursue a career as a firefighter, and later formed Street Dogs around 2002.

Other great Street Dogs tunes:

Back To The World, a hard-rockin' song about a soldier's longing for home and family.

There Is Power In A Union, Street Dogs' take on the Billy Bragg classic.

Two Angry Kids, from the latest album "State of Grace".

Savin Hill, title track from Street Dogs' first album.
