“At the Chateau” is our second release on Atlanta’s Stickfigure Records. The album follows last year’s “King and Queen of the Dance Floor,” which was made for living room dance parties and making funny mix-tapes for your friends. “At the Chateau” still has that La Chansons sense of humor with songs like “Candy Party,” “Dr. & Nurse,” “Heels Come Out at Night,” and “Spin the Bottle.” However, much of this album is inspired by our experiences navigating our double lives as day-time workers and night-time rockers. Songs like, “Jerrica,” and “Turquoise Paradise” illustrate the challenges of working 9-5, and the joy that comes when we “flip the switch” to become La Chansons. We dive a little deeper this time with “Ice Princess” and “Love Dream,” and some songs simply describe our real nights out on the town, like “Club Europe,” and “I Can Rock Harder.”
The “King and Queen of the Dance Floor” are giving you a glimpse of life inside the “Chateau,” a little peak at our real lives. Don’t worry though, it’s all set to slammin’ dance beats and it’s totally ready for the club! We aren’t apologetic for loving dance music, and it shines through on this album. We (Greg especially) voraciously consume all varieties of dance music, and are inspired by all types throughout history. All of these diverse sounds have inspired this album – it’s our homage to our favorite genre!
Here is what some reviewers had to write about “The King And Queen Of The Dance Floor”:
“I really like this record because if I am going to be reminded of my childhood, I want to only be reminded of the good things, namely music and packs of 1989 Score baseball cards. They've done all they can to help me out here. Now if I could just do something with these Luis de los Santos rookie cards." - Joels Hit Show
“It's full of catchy melodies and infectious beats, and synthesizers whir and wail. The three songs recorded in Nashville were originally the band's demo, but were too tasty to be left off the LP. The album flows so smoothly, you'd never know.” – Chris Wilkey / Performer Magazine

ATTENTION SYSTEM has created an institution based on hybridizing the sweaty, three-in-the-morning dance music they love with the guitars and drums they can’t seem to put down.
With dance, darkwave, electronica and punk at their core, Brian Fisher (vocals, keys), Joshua Broughton (guitar, vocals), Jonathan Davis (guitar), Chris Edmonds (bass) and Jason Curtis (drums) have fashioned something new. They´ve created what they only half-jokingly like to call "a rock band that’s mugged an electronica band and is digging through a stolen, dirty pair of pants for extra synth lines."
They´ve been compared to The Faint; Prick; Nine Inch Nails; Does It Offend You, Yeah?; The Presets; and the Editors -- and while the band certainly counts these bands among their influences, Attention System’s music packs a heavier punch while retaining all the danceable elements that make the electropunk genre so compelling.
