    I've been playing guitar for a while now, and about 2 years ago I started broadening my musical tastes and listening to some metal bands.
    Now that I've been playing for a while, I've been able to learn some pretty awesome songs.

    But right now I'm kind of stuck. :/
    I've gotten kind of bored and don't feel really challenged by the songs I'm learning... :/
    I like killswitch engage, as I lay dying, avenged sevenfold, breaking benjamin, etc., but I'd like some suggestions for songs to learn... Either songs by these bands or bands like these would be great. Also maybe something that has a good rhythm guitar line (like my curse - killswitch engage :D)

    Help a fellow guitarist plox? :)

    All that Remains is definitely a similar band. You might wanna look into some Trivium if your into that lighter metal, but if you want something a little heavier that'll give you a challenge you should learn some As Blood Runs Black.

    YouTube - As Blood Runs Black - In Dying Days (lyrics)

    I can play this song but I haven't got it up to speed yet. It's extremely difficult for me to try and keep up with the song as I'm playing it.

    Learn The Air That I Breathe or Six, upload it on here, and you shall have my utmost respect. (I realize neither of these are off their two first albums but I still love these songs nonetheless).

    Akissforjersey - Oh, Infamous City
    All That Remains - The Air That I Breathe; Six
    As I Lay Dying - Reflection; Confined; Forsaken
    Attila - Rage
    August Burns Red - Marianas Trench
    Avenged Sevenfold - Darkness Surrounding (most. underrated. song. by. them. period.)
    Between The Buried and Me - Selkies: The Endless Obsession; Prequel to the Sequel
    ^Only if you don't mind learning some really long songs...
    Blessthefall - God Wears Gucci
    Breaking Benjamin - Firefly; Polyamorous
    Children of Bodom - Triple Corpse Hammerblow; Follow the Reaper
    Chimaira - Army of Me
    Crossfade - Drown You Out; So Far Away

    I got more but I feel like that's a good start.
