Metalizer is the third full-length release by Swedish power metal band Sabaton, but was actually recorded as their professional debut album (second overall) in 2002. The band's first record company, Underground Symphony, withheld the recordings for several years before arranging to release the rights to Black Lodge in 2005.^[1]

The band's first album, the demo compilation Fist for Fight is included as a bonus disc with a previously unreleased track. Most of the tracks on the first disc are re-recordings from this release.
