The second movement of "East Hastings" by the Canadian post-rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor, albeit condensed, appeared in the movie but not on the soundtrack album.
All tracks performed by John Murphy unless otherwise stated.
Tracks 22 and 23 appear on the U.S. release only.
"In the House – In a Heartbeat" is an instrumental track by John Murphy. The track was featured over the climactic confrontation of the film, and recurs in several scenes in the sequel, 28 Weeks Later. It is also featured in a climactic torture and fight scene in 2010's Kick-Ass and throughout the sequel Kick-Ass 2, and in a trailer for the post-apocalyptic Ukrainian videogame Metro 2033. The song was covered by British Death Metal band The Rotted on their album Get Dead Or Die Trying, and indie developer James Silva for the Xbox Live Arcade game The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile, in a Guitar Hero style mini-game segment where the protagonists play guitar solos. This iteration was included in one of the game's soundtracks when released for free on the developer's bandcamp site, where it was dubbed "Iffenhaus – In a Heartbeat (John Murphy Homage)". An unofficial arrangement of it was used in the final scene of the first episode of the anime Highschool of the Dead. The Italian band Eldritch used the song on the first CD of their 2008 live album Livequake as an intro. It has also been featured in a Strongbow cider advert on British television.
