This best goes in Popular Media, also, I'd discourage it from simply becoming a list of bands without further discussion!

Screamo is a primitave genre of hardcore punk. Riffs are fast and simple, there are generally no guitar solos, and the singer literally SCREAMS (not squeals, not death growl, not scream as a term used in metal to decribe high pitch vocal).

Styles of music such as post-hardcore, metalcore, deathcore, death metal and black metal are often mislabeled as "screamo" based on the assumption that any music with screamed vocals should be considered such.

I think what you meant post hardcore/metalcore, both of which can mix in electronic/techno music. To put it more simply, both these genres often feature screaming vocals, BUT they generally have another vocalist who does the parts people can generally make out.

So the metalcore/post hardcore bands I like are:

Asking Alexandria
Pierce The Veil
Sleeping With Sirens
Escape The Fate
Woe Is Me
We Came As Romans
Inhale Exhale
Silverstein
Abandon All Ships
Memphis May Fire
Falling In Reverse
Chiodos
Isles and Glaciers
Blessthefall
Miss May I
Dance Gavin Dance
Emarosa
Alesana
Motionless In White
A Static Lullaby
A Day To Remember
I See Stars
A Skylit Drive
For All Those Sleeping

best dubstep or techno is either rusko deadmau5 or bassnectar.
best metalcore is definately Avenged Sevenfold during Waking the Fallen through Avenged Sevenfold.
