There are several bands named "Macbeth". 1) Macbeth is a Heavy Metal band formed in Erfurt, Thuringia - East Germany. - From 1987 to 1989 the band was known as Caiman, after Macbeth had been forced to disband by the East German authorities. Macbeth/Caiman finally split-up for the first time in 1989 after the suicide of their singer Wittenburg. A first comeback in 1993 ended with the death of their drummer. The band re-united for the second time in 2002. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Macb

Encyclopedic overview
Macbethad mac Findláech (anglicised as Macbeth MacFinlay; died 15 August 1057), nicknamed the Red King (Middle Irish: Rí Deircc), was King of Scotland from 1040 until his death in 1057, during a period when the Scottish kingdom is referred to as the Kingdom of Alba.
Little is known about Macbeth's early life, although he was the son of Findláech of Moray and may have been a grandson of Malcolm II, presumably through the latter's daughter, Donada. He became Mormaer (Earl) of Moray – a semi-autonomous province – in 1032, and was probably responsible for the death of the previous mormaer, Gille Coemgáin. He subsequently married Gille Coemgáin's widow, Gruoch.
