About Me

amessageofbullets(AMOB) is an elctronic-pop-rock duo consisting of Adam Zavalney(guitar, vocals, beats, random stuff) and Steve Symons(guitar, singing, being awesome). They have been around as AMOB since 2004, but have been playing together since high school in such sweet bands as The Part Time Sex Machines(PTSM), Seed, FOLD, and Ashton Ink. Adam has been in other local acts such as a brief stint with Airlift Vietnam and a great run with New York Sleeps. Adam also writes music for his other project My oh My. The two young men who aren't so young anymore are growing up fast, but still love making the music. Steve got married on July 13(Friday the 13th, how terrifying!) 2007 to Elizabeth(Libby) Gruber. Coincidentally Adam has been dating Libby's sister Emma Gruber for almost 2 years now! Keepin it in the family I guess...it's like 1924 around these parts....it's all good though.The moral of the bio is that AMOB is here to stay and continues 'destroying' the Fargo music scene, one shifty pop song after another.whoomp.
