The House That Dirt Built

The House That Dirt Built is the second studio album by The Heavy. It was released on October 13, 2009. The title is a reference to the nursery rhyme This Is the House That Jack Built. Vocalist Kevin Swalby explained in an interview with Songfacts that the song "Sixteen" was inspired by a time when he was working a lot as a DJ and he would see 16-year-old kids sneaking into clubs. The album's songs were used for several video games and films; "Short Change Hero" was featured in the 2010 movie Faster with Dwayne Johnson, a trailer for the 2011 video game Batman: Arkham City, and later opened the 2012 video game, Borderlands 2. It is also the opening theme of the Sky1 television series Strike Back. "How You Like Me Now?" was featured in the credits for Borderlands 2 and was included in the 2011 racing video game Driver: San Francisco (along with two other songs from the band), the beginning and end of the 2010 film The Fighter as well as the Season 2 finale of Suits.
