I listen to screamo, emo, grunge, rock kinda stuff and alot of club as well stuff like benni benassi and dj inphinity neways, i was thinking wireless cuz i wanted freedom but i prefer sound quality more so ill would probably be happier with wired, also in-ear ones would be best i guess because i'm on the bus a lot and they would be better portable because i dont so much like bulky unless they are a good deal

In ears will have the most isolation (especially on a bus). These would be my top 3 under $100.

The ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 are on sale at Costco for $50. If there isn't one near you, Amazon has them for $60 (Super.fi 3). These are a little on the large side for traveling and take some getting used to.

The Denon AH-C700 are also on sale at Amazon for $100(AH-C700). I have heard great things about these and plan to get a pair myself.

I love the Crossroads MylarOne X3i. You can get them at Jaben Network for $57.

I would try to spend a little more and get the Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 Pro. The super.fi 5 Pro has nice, balanced sound without sounding unnaturally "boomy."

I listen to a lot of the stuff you mentioned (check my last.fm in my signature), and I love my SF5 Pro. If you can get the extra money to buy that, I would definitely recommend it. Great bass and decent isolation, mediocre comfort. Sure, they're not neutral IEMs in any way, but they sound great.
