try listening to guitarists who aren't shredders, that'd certainly be a deviation from your "norm".

 

[Only Human]

Muhammed Suicmez of Necrophagist
Andy LaRocque of King Diamond and others
Mattias "IA" Eklundh of Freak Kitchen

 

[Nebulous]

Jeff Loomis- Nevermore

 

[Ganymede]

Umm...Very incomplete list.
Alex Scholnick
James Murphey
Pat O'Brian
Trey Azagtoth

And let's not get into non-metal guitarists...

 

[Mottley.]

Allan Holdsworth
Michael Romeo
John Petrucci
Frank Gambale
Tony MacAlpine

Try listening to guitar players from other genres, too. You'll probably hear something that they're doing that you can steal for your own playing.
