As a wonderful surprise, Osoch deviates from his heavier material and brings us a very beautiful track of hope and inspiration. Inspired by the Fallout Equestria universe, Heal the Soul is a prime example of how to make a song build up with energy – starting with soft, emptiness and ambiance, growing to a very satisfying, moving chorus, and then expertly switching back to build again. Osoch sings of the many difficult trials ahead and the better days to follow, utilizing brilliant harmonies and epic backing instrumentals along the way.
