Three separate artists known by the name Motor (in chronological order):

1) Motor (Russia): Vadim Ougrioumov is from Moscow and has been releasing music as Motor since 1998.

But his recent works, released via Top 40 (under Motor and other aliases) are more , , and .

2). Motor (USA): Larry Kayne, Dirk Gilbert, Michael Sean White, James Graff and Lou Manero released a pair of CDs in the USA called Screaming Bloody Motor (EP 1992) and Vicious Cycle (1995 Reptile Records). They toured the Southern US and won acclaim as a standout live act. When their press agent decided to generate buzz on the band he shipped several copies of their EP to German, UK and Nordic radio. The bluesy cut Reptiles off the Screaming Bloody Motor EP actually received solid European radio airplay. Unfortunately they were never picked up by a major label and disbanded a few years later.

3). The more recent act called MOTOR (note the caps) is Mr. No and Bryan Black. They first released music under this name in 2003.
