MetallicDoritos is an American comedy YouTube channel from Bentonville, Arkansas, formed in 2011. The group consists of MetallicDoritos (Evan Keith), and his various friends and family. The group has featured a Smörgåsbord of both YouTubers, complete strangers and close friends for many of MetallicDoritos video projects. Their cinematic style draws on Surrealism, Random humor, Deadpan, and Parody videos. The channel currently has 207 subs (2/8/2018), and is still thriving to this day.

2010: Formation
MetallicDoritos was formed in Phoenix, Arizona on April 17, 2011, by Evan Keith (although it was originally Evan's gamertag on Xbox 360, circa 2010).

Although it's current name hasn't changed in recent years, it was previously known as "TheXslizer". No one, including Evan himself, knows why that name was chosen.

The first few years of it's creation were meant to serve as a gaming channel, despite having no knowledge on how to record games. MetallicDoritos' first video was actually a lipsync to Coldplay's song "Yellow". Evan used his webcam, recording via YouTube Capture, while listening to Spotify at his desk. The video froze halfway through due to computer capabilities being lower during that time, but the audio still played in the background. Without knowledge of this happening, the video went up the same day, and Evan kept the video on YouTube for several months before deleting it of embarrassment.

2013: Star Dance
Evan's friend came over, and made a second video, this time in Windows Movie Maker (where all famous cinematographers start out). This turned out to be a bigger hit, as it has accumulated 74 views (as of 11/08/17).

The MetallicDoritos crew grew and grew, and then an official FaceBook page was made to gather more attention. This slowly accumulated for fans (mainly friends and family).

2015: Smartwatch tutorial
Edited in WMM, "DIY Homemade Smartwatch Tutorial (for boys)" graced the channel after a short hiatus. This is still MD's most viewed video to date, sitting at a cool 23k view (as of 11/08/17). Most people who watch the video don't understand that is a parody, however, and have given MD backlash for false thumbnail, and instructions.
