I've really been out of the music loop this year in comparison to other years. Anyhow, I still venture outside my cave a few times:
Purity Ring - Shrines. Cocaine in an album. I'm sure there's better albums this year from a talent/art/critic perspective. The songs all sound very similar and it's only 38 minutes long, but even as a Waffles Power User+, I don't think I've ever heard an album half as catchy as this.
Other albums I enjoyed a great deal:
Twin Shadow - Confess
Beach House - Bloom
Grimes - Visions
Hot Chip - In Our Heads
