The Brothel is the second studio album by Norwegian musician Susanne Sundfør, released on 15 March 2010 in Norway, through EMI Music Norway and Grönland Records.[3] The album sees a shift from the piano driven pop from previous releases towards a more ambitious and electronic sound.[4]

The Brothel was a critical and commercial success in Norway, spending 30 weeks in the Norwegian album charts and becoming platinum certified and the best-selling album in Norway in 2010.[5][6] It also won Sundfør a Norwegian Grammy award for "best composer" as well as a nomination for "best lyrics".[7]
