stuck for things to play

hey, been playing bout 8 months or so.
Stuck for new things to learn.
only 3 songs I really like playing over and over are
Califonication -RHCP
Seek and destroy - Metalica
Sweet child of mine - GnR

All pretty all over the place but Really enjoyed learning them as they change fom verse to verse. I find most songs I try to learn now take me anywhere from 10-20 mins to learn and are repetitive.

Bands like Slayer are far too fast to learn at this stage, Most Indie Bands like Arctic monkeys, Hives ect are repetitive and I get easyly bored of them.

Anyone got any sugestions??
 
Try the British band THE HOAX ( Robin & Jesse Davey with Jon Amor and Hugh Coltman). Their stuff is a little hard to get hold of, but great power rock and blues. Infectious stuff, Robin really works out. Albums are Unpossible, Humdinger and Sound Like This, plus a live one. There is another band by the same name, metal I think but not sure. If you are interested but can't come up with copies, let me know. And get some bandaids, you'll need them.
