I love NYPC (formerly New Young Pony Club). They're an electronic/new wave band from the UK that's perhaps most known for the single "Ice Cream", as it was featured in commercials for Nissan Cube and Intel.
The band recently released their third album, 2013's self-titled NYPC, and it was my second favorite album of the year behind YEEZUS. The same thing happened in 2010 when their sophomore album, The Optimist, ended the year as my second favorite album behind another Kanye creation, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
