- Gives You Hell - All American Rejects - After Banquo dies, obviously his very ghostly presence traumatized Macbeth, thereby giving him hell
- This Means War - Nickelback - Even after death, Banquo still tries to get even with Macbeth
- Your Betrayal - Bullet For My Valentine - This song, although directed to a woman, more or less describes Banquo's predicament, when Macbeth orders him killed
- My Sacrifice - Creed - Banquo, in some sense, sacrifices himself so that his son, Fleance, might get away and continue his bloodline
- Indestructable - Disturbed - This song represents Banquo in so many ways. Even after having Banquo killed, Macbeth cannot rid himself of him. And, as the witches predicted, Banquo's bloodline shall inherit the throne
- Just To Get High - Nickelback - Although this song deals with drug abuse, it has the same sense that Banquo had for Macbeth. He was worried for Macbeth, worried that he was doing terrible deeds to inherit all of the power.
- Devour - Shinedown - The main verse in this song is "It's your final hour", which very clearly describes Banquo's situation
- World So Cold - Three Days Grace - This song describes how Banquo must have been feeling before and after death.
- The Good Life - Three Days Grace -This describes Banquo's desires, what he wishes, if not for himself, than for his descendents
- Running Out Of Days -3 Doors Down - Obviously, this song describes how Banquo must have been feeling the days before his death, the days when Macbeth became king
Really nice playlist. I like the rock-centric theme that you've given to Banquo. It's a very appropriate genre for Banquo--simultaneously riddled with angst, defiance, and bold, indomitable riffs. Banquo might have been betrayed and murdered, but he'll definitely have the last laugh. Great job.
