Rather than critically analysing the whole list or picking out the bands/artists I think shouldn't be up there, I'll say that most of the list is decent. But I will say this:
I like Primus but I can understand why their polarising nature might land them a place in a list like this (even if I disagree). And that's why I can't understand why bands like Jamiroquai would be up there. Personally, I think they're overrated as their albums strike me as being rather homogeneous and inconsistent (that and I prefer Incognito). But one of the worst artists in music history... really? They're good at what they do and their basslines alone disqualify them from this list.

What I hate most about this list is the rationale.
"They have keyboard solos/fantasy lyrics".
Great insight guys.
