If I'm not listening to anything within the emo genre I'm probably listening to old school hardcore. I also listen to some 70's prog, and "classic" rock. Stuff like Pink Floyd, Rush, Gabriel era Genesis, Led Zeppelin, The Doors.

hmm... a decent amount of hip hop, hardcore, post rock...the usual stuff, but I'm also really into folk music (in fact I've played in a folk punk band for quite a few years now), and I listen to Jesus Christ Superstar quite a lot. Musicals in general are rad, but that one is a favorite. Honestly, the biggest one is probably Weird Al. I've been obsessed with that man since a young age, and he's still pumping out amazing parodies and putting on better shows than 90% of the hardcore acts i've seen. Oh. And JAZZ: herbie hancock, thelonious monk, bill frisell, charles mingus, rhasaan roland kirk (to list some of the weird ones) as well as more mellow jazz. The only genres that I avoid almost entirely are indie-rock/pop, just about any techno, and classic rock. For me, living in a town full of hippies ruined the small portion of classic rock that the radio had left unscathed.

Folk punk, anti folk, emo, underground hip-hop, spoken word, singer songwriter-ish stuff, hardcore.
Mostly.

I like listening to tons of progressive bands. Ranging from all kinds of genres. My most-listened-to bands of modern time (~'00-now) that aren't skramz would probably be stuff like The Fall of Troy (progfest-post-hardcore), Converge, Meet Me In St. Louis (and other mathpop/rock-bands, like Colour and Tubelord. Meet Me In St Louis is probably more like The Fall of Troy though, leaning towards post-hardcore, although sounding completely different from them), The Blood Brothers, Drive Like Jehu, Deathspell Omega, Number 12, also, The Chariot.
I also really fucking enjoyed War From A Harlots Mouth's latest album, MMX. It sounds nothing like their old stuff, it's completely different. It's a massive progfest and it fucking rules. So much talent.
Have always listened to black metal, since I was like, 7? My sister introduced me to it when I was young and for some reason I really liked it. Bands like Dissection, Abruptum, Burzum, Summoning, Windir, Månegarm and Naglfar were a few of those that I enjoyed listening to back in the days. Had a huge break from black metal for some years and while I enjoy those bands I listened to back in the days I have a hard time getting into black metal that I haven't heard before. I guess I've grown out of it. Although one of my fav bands are Deathspell Omega, like I mentioned before.
My parents listened to shittons of 60-70-80's rock when I grew up, including stuff like Led Zeppelin, Yes and Pink Floyd (to name a few), so that stuff lies very close to my heart.
tl;dr - i like alot of music

Re: When your not listening to skramz...
I dont really listen to much else I guess. I'm a fan of the whole twinkly scene, in part to me really liking math rock type stuff, but besides those two genres and screamo I don't really listen to other stuff to much. I've found myself to be a fan of some of the new Sub-Pop bands and some folk, not exclusively No Idea type stuff either. I'll listen to a bunch of post-hardcore in the realm of Thursday and such and have the occasional Joy Division/Smith session, or some kind of similar band. If you catch me on the right day I'll be listening to The Suicide Machines. Some of my favorite non-skramz bands are Carrissa's Wierd, The Get Up Kids, Cursive, The Speed of Sound in Seawater, and Empire! Empire!. Whatever.

I've been on a Shudder to Think binge lately.
Re: When your not listening to skramz...
Lots of Lowtalker, Living With Lions, Misery Signals. Pretty much that, but then I throw in some Veil Of Maya, Volumes, or some canadian band.
Fuck the pop culture.
Re: When your not listening to skramz...
Mostly (post-)hardcore and metalcore. But I also often listen to indierock and post-rock.
