When I'm angry I listen to metal.
But when I'm depressed, or frustrated, for whatever reason I listen to...
Enya. it's soothing.

White Zombie
Stabbing Westward
Opeth - Silhouette.
It helps me think. When I think I am calm. When I think I am near-emotionless.
Although I listen to Silhouette a large amount anyway..

I find that to cure a bad mood, I listen to Raison D'etre.
Atomspheric music usually does it for me, as I find that I soothes me whether I listen to it consciously or sub-consciously. Trance music, even though somewhat repetative, does the job as well, as does, classical and down-tempo music.
Repetative music, like basic metal and pop/dance music, seems to reinforce my moods, such as when I'm feeling active/sporty, I'll listen to Fear Factory/Sepultura with it's fast beats and repetition.

Let me die in solitude...
Devin, Savatage, Buckethead's Colma... or really blasting black or death metal...I dunno, that relaxes me 
actually I find SUIZID very therapeutic!

Whoa, I thought I was the only one
Yeah, if I'm down, on goes the Mayhem, or some old Bolt Thrower, something like that. Just let it pound the negative thoughts out of you

Depends. Sometimes headbanging out my issues is the most theraputic way to handle my day and Arch Enemy's "Dead Inside", or Slayer's "Stain of Mind" work wonders.
Other times, getting lost in an album is the best approach, Anathema's "Judgement", Devy's Ocean Machine album, or just about any Opeth will do (well, not so much BWP).
Interstingly enough, soft stuff like the Therion track "The Siren in the Woods" keeps me awake, but Emperor's "Anthems" album often puts me right to sleep...

Honestly - metal cures me whether I'm angry or sad. At this point of my listening career, I find other forms of music shallow as an emotional pill.

When i am angry or sad, i listen to death or thrash metal!
It makes me feel better.
When i am happy, i also listen to those genres mentioned above, but i also often
listen to depressive and mellow stuff in that mood!

Where am I?
I had a whole mix just for this:
Alice In Chains - Down in a Hole
Diegrinder - Grasp
Dream Theater - Lie
Pantera - The Throes of Rejection
Pantera - Planet Caravan
It has a nice arc from sadness through anger back to mellow sadness.
I also use
Anathema - Alone... (well, most of The Silent Enigma)
To Bid You Farewell
The rest varies a lot.

When I'm angry any loud hard metal will do. "Kick your ass" energy is what helps
However when I'm sad, depressed, or lonely I have discovered that by far Dream Theater's IMAGES AND WORDS album will make me feel better. Something about the lyrics is genuinely positive and the music is incredible.

When I want to wallow in depression, or when it's raining outside and I have nothing to do that day, I love listening to Flowing Tears' Jade. Her deep voice is so hypnotic.
