Well, I started as more of a metal kid before getting into the gother side of music. Although I agree with most of your choices, other non goth bands/artists I like are, in no order whatsoever:
Nick Drake
Doves
Ed Harcourt
Eliza Carthy
QOTSA (although someone should tell them that giveth and taketh are pronounced gives and takes.)
Squeeze
REM
Rolling Stones (early)
Jesus Lizard
Pixies
oh, that's a tiny list... there's so many... I have a huge collection of music, and there's very little I don't like, with the exception of some Hip Hop, and the turgid vomitous shite that calls itself R'n'B but has no right to associate itself with Rythm & Blues.
And you're right about the Darkness. They are GREAT!
Last of all... Michael Jackson: good up to (ironically) Bad. After that, crap. Perhaps the title of the album bad was pointing out his future direction? Hmmm.

I like a lot of deathrock...........which could be considered punk or goth or both. Besides that I like a lot of old school punk,classical,and some old country like Patsy Cline.

Evanescence (favourite band of the minute despite what people say)
Guns and Roses
Metallica
Ozzy
Savage Garden were good
Lost Prophets
Muse ain't bad (seeing them live)
Hell is for Heroes
Soft Cell were good
HIM
QOTSA are quite cool aswell
And so the list goes on as I've only recently got into Goth music and subculture.
Some of those were what the media describe as Nu-goth. Don't really know why but I reckon all these bands rock one way or the other. Oh yeah Antichrist, The Darkness suck. Why? Because, they're totally unoriginal in that they're the most cliched band to emerge since Spinal Tap. And they're not really that talented. Sorry.

I think I actually listen to more non-goth than goth nowadays. I would probably have to say anything punk (what can I say - the ex-skateboarder in me never really has put away the old-skool  ) and lots of the EBM/Synth stuff that has come out in the past few years.
I'd have to say my two favs right now are Greed Day and VNV Nation.

I love indie bands like Yo La Tengo, Stereolab, The Pixies, and Sonic Youth. I like Jane's Addiction (Ritual), and undeground hip hop like People Under The Stairs, MF DOOM, and The Pharcyde.
I love shoegazer! Ride, Swervedriver, Lush, Slowdive, Seefeel, and My Bloody Valentine.
And I love those bands tht are hard to classify like Sigur Ros, Radiohead, and Bjork. She's got such an angelic, elvish voice.

Eep, my dentist was obsessed with Patsy Cline, he always had her music on and would tell me her life story while he was working on me, he'd get really emotional about her, anything from the verge of tears to a fit of rage... yeah, and he was on the other side of the drill. :I
As for my non-goth, non-punk and non-deathrock musical interests::
Sneaker Pimps
Portishead
Massive attack
Stone Roses
White Stripes
