Brol () is the debut studio album by Belgian singer Angèle. It was self-released on 5 October 2018 through Angèle's own label Angèle VL Records. A reissue with seven new tracks was released on 8 November 2019 under the name Brol La Suite.
The album received the Album Révélation of the Year at the 2019 Victoires de la Musique awards ceremony in France.
The album cover features a photograph of Angèle as a child with her baby teeth out.
The album's title is a reference to the Belgian slang word "brol". In Brussels slang, "brol" has multiple meanings. It can refer to either a heap of random small objects, or a nondescript object of little value; a place of disorder or shambles; or a fuss.
A music video for "Tout oublier" was released upon the album's release date on 5 October 2018. The video features Angèle and her brother Roméo unfittingly wearing ski attire and carrying ski equipment on the beach of a seaside resort.
Brol has received generally positive reviews from critics. Writing for Le Journal du Dimanche, Ludovic Perrin praised the album, calling each song excellent and perfectly arranged.
The album was included in Pretty Much Amazings list of twenty-five "Albums of the Year" for 2018.
