Following confirmation that drone metal masters Sunn O))) and Canadian soundscaper Tim Hecker would be headlining this year's Unsound Toronto, organizers behind the Luminato event have now revealed the full lineup details.

This year's Unsound takes place June 10 and 11 at Toronto's Hearn Generating Station. While fest planners had suggested music fans "expect the unexpected" of the lineup, it's now been confirmed that the Friday portion will find Sunn O))) supported by Amnesia Scanner, Elysia Crampton, Jlin, Kara Lis-Coverdale, Lotic, Rabih Beaini, Raime, and a collaborative performance between the Bug (a.k.a. Kevin Martin), Flowdan and Miss Red.

Ahead of Tim Hecker's set on the Saturday, Unsound attendees will be treated to performances from Alessandro Cortini, Ancient Methods, Aurora Halal, Hot Shotz, Olivia, Orphx, Roly Porter, and T'ien Lai.

As previously reported, Unsound heads are promoting the Toronto event as "a journey including ambient soundscapes, noise, drone metal, pounding techno and the most contemporary fractured club music."

Tickets are $25 a night. You can find out more info here.
