We’ve also learned that Universal will be releasing the Foo Fighters’ recent rock comedy/horror film Studio 666 on Blu-ray and DVD. We don’t yet have a street date, but you can see the Blu-ray cover artwork above left. Of course, the release is bittersweet for fans, as the Foo Fighters’ longtime drummer, Taylor Hawkins, passed away last month while the band was on tour in South America.
