Lanrue founded the band in 1970 with Rio Reiser. Lanrue and Ralph Christian Möbius (Reiser) had a lot in common. They met in the town of Nieder-Roden in Hesse in 1966.

Culture Minister Claudia Roth, a manager of the band, expressed deep sadness and grief in a statement. "This is a great loss, also personally for me," said the Green politician. "R.P.S. Lanrue was one of the most important composers and guitarists of our country." Songs were created from their collaboration with Rio Reiser that shaped the sound of an entire generation. "They founded one of the most politically engaged bands of our country with Ton Steine Scherben, which was also a great art." Lanrue made more than 50 years of Music and shaped it, and stood for a fierce idea of the connection between Music and Politics. "The songs are timeless, they touch us just as much today, they give strength," so Roth.
