Personally, I think Kaputt is more interesting than the majority of this year's Indie-oriented releases. The 80's jazz/sophisti-pop aesthetic sounds rather colorful compared to much of what's been hyped this year, and I'm not the only one who has realized that.
That being said, Iron & Wine have also delivered spectacularly this year, and I also feel Fleet Foxes' Helplessness Blues will most likely grow on people as time goes by.
