When you say emo I'm going to assume, for now, that you mean stuff like Sunny Day Real Estate and Mineral as opposed to the name being used for "screamo" also. On the second option, I'll get to that in a second.

Mineral

American Football

Penfold

Jejune (Haven't heard much of them)

Now, if you don't mind stuff with screaming, I've got a lot more for you. Here you go. Some are pretty well-known for the genre so don't get at me if I'm coming off as a messenger of the obvious.

Saetia

City of Caterpillar

Raein (They're Italian! You can get their newest album for free on their website)

You and I (singing and screaming!)

Four Hundred Years

Funeral Diner

Yaphet Kotto (a good mixture of singing and unclean vocals)

Orchid's pretty good, but they came off as being nihilistic jerks to me. As TV Tropes says, your mileage may vary.

Some really good modern post-hardcore bands that are similar to the ones previously mentioned are La Dispute, Touche Amore and Pianos Become the Teeth.

Have fun listening!
