Polarization is an album by American jazz trombonist and composer Julian Priester and Marine Intrusion recorded in January 1977 and released on ECM later that year.

The sextet features saxophonist Ron Stallings and rhythm section Ray Obiedo, Curtis Clark, Heshima Mark Williams and Augusta Lee Collins.

"[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings noted that the album finds the musicians playing "in a spacious modern idiom, with carefully deployed electronics ... individual pieces are atmospheric but without sacrifice of linear energies.

"[3] A writer for Billboard called the music "lovely, often haunting", and commented: "Priester's flutters, stops, deep tones glide easily through the six compositions".

[4] Writing for ECM blog Between Sound and Space, Tyran Grillo remarked: "Polarization delivers in its many moods and emotional travels.
