Macbeth is an Italian gothic metal band that has carved a distinct place for themselves within the heavy metal community through their dramatic and evocative music. Formed in Milan in 1995, the group initially drew inspiration from the dark, brooding atmosphere of William Shakespeare’s classic tragedy, from which they derived their name. Consisting of lead vocalist Morena Rozzi, drummer Fabrizio Cislaghi, guitarist Max Montagano, and bassist Fabiano Romagnoli, the band is known for combining heavy riffs with melancholic melodies and dual vocal harmonies between male and female voices, creating a dynamic and theatrical sound.

Over the years, Macbeth has evolved their style while staying true to their gothic roots, as evidenced by their discography that boasts several critically acclaimed albums. Their most recent offering is "Neo-Gothic Propaganda," an album that continues to push the boundaries of the genre with its richly layered sound and intricate compositions. Prior to this, releases such as "Scent of Winter" and "Superangelic Hate Bringers" have seen the band refine their art, mixing aggression with lyricism, often exploring themes of love, death, and existential angst. "Malae Artes," "Vanitas," and "Romantic Tragedy's Crescendo" further established their reputation, showcasing their ability to create deeply emotional and atmospheric music. The journey from their earlier work, exemplified by "Macbeth III," through to their recent output, represents the growth and persistence of this unique band within the gothic metal scene.
