Challenging songs to learn on guitar?

I've been playing guitar for almost 2 and a half years. I can play the ascending/descending riff thingy from Scarified by Racer X, and that's the only shred song I've tried learning.

I have a 6 string electric and an acoustic I can't use most of the time.

My sweeps are average I guess (I can do 5 string arpeggios, but no hammer-ons/pull-offs or it gets a bit messy), so no sweep frenzy Yngwie Malmsteen songs.

Thanks to anyone that's going to give me a suggestion.

Update:

Thanks, I already know how to play Californaication. Master of Puppets would indeed be interesting... I'll try it
