Hmmm.... ok

Pop (some pop, depends on the song and/or artist.)
Country (I know, unexpected, but after being forced to listen for a while, it grows on you.)

and my Personal favorite:

Rock (Straight, classics like Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, Metallica (Wait, that's something else) and newer bands, like Skillet.)

Yeah, Metallica are more Thrash Metal :)

Rock
Heavy Metal
Thrash Metal
Speed Metal
Power Metal

...notice a pattern? (I could go on and list a ton more sub-genres of Metal like Death Metal/Black Metal/Nordic Metal/Progressive Metal?)

Ahem, other than that...nothing much.

I like a lot of different music, but my favourite genres are definitely Post-Hardcore and Pop-Punk. I think almost all of my favourite bands belong to one of those two genres.

The dual-vocal dynamic (between clean and harsh vocals) in Post-Hardcore is brilliant, and a lot of the instrumental work in the big bands of the genre (particularly Dance Gavin Dance) is always beautiful to listen too.
And then Pop-Punk is just fun, and it always puts me in a good mood. Also big choruses that you can't not sing along too.

What ever genre Muse are (Because they aren't exactly sure what genre they are themselves!)
Europop (ABBA, Alphabeat, A-ha)
Rock, but only certain bands; Biffy Clyro, Dire Straits, The Eagles etc.
Indie Rock (Imagine Dragons, Bastille, The Black Keys)
Pre-90's Pop (David Bowie? Generally just a load of songs but not bands)
Classical (Mainly Film Soundtracks but I also have an interest in the real classics, Vivaldi, Holst, Mozart, Greig)
Swing/Jazz (Again, no particular artist)
Some techno rock (Pendulum, Prodigy)
Songs from Musical Theatre (Les Mis, Sweeney Todd, Phantom etc.)

ermm..... there's probably loads of others and I just can't remember them.

urg i'm awful at genres and figuring out what genre is what. 
 
as in bands that i like would/are labelled as things like "britpop", "dark cabaret", "trip hop" or "neo-psychedelia" but idk if i'd like everything in those genres. 
 
i really ought to branch out when it comes to finding similar bands to what i like, haha. 
this (http://audiomap.tuneglue.net/) is a very useful site that i need to get around to using: type in the name of a band in the top-right, click on the bubble and it will offer similar artists. 
 
i do like 80s synthpop, though. 
and i adore electroswing.
