Likely in own top 100: 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, 16, 19
Like to some extent: 3, 11, 13, 14, 17
Meh: 2, 18
Not heard: 10, 20
Hate: 8, 9, 12

The only things that really baffle me about the list are the continuing popularity of Idioteque and LCD Soundsystem and the high ranking of Hercules and Love Affair. Pretty much everything else is either predictable P4Kery and/or actually good.
