Some good sweeping songs to learn?

OK I have searched through the forums, but can't find specific threads. Can anyone suggest any sweeping songs that sound good? I'm after ones that incorporate 3-6 string sweeps, not just three string ones like the popular riffs by Malmsteen etc; a full on beast of a sweep display is what I'm looking for.

I've downloaded a couple of excercises etc for GP but would liek some songs, only I really can't think of any.

Cheers, and apologies in advance if this thread is 'closed' due to feeble research on my behalf...

The first little bit of Epitaph (solo) is one of the very few Necrophagist solos that are doable for me, try that one.

Oh yeahhh I forgot about Vital Remains

And Concerto too there are some slower speeps (past the intro) that will really help.

I was under the impression that Daniel tapped out his arpeggios rather swept them?

Loads of sweeping in Nile, mate. Blessed Dead at the end of the solo, Kheftiu Asar Butchiu, loads of sweeping in cast down the Heretic, sweeping part in Defiling the Gates of Ishtar. There's probably more as well.
