Atsushi Fukuyama was the leader of Pride of mind; while Masaki Haruna was in charge of lyrics and vocals, he wrote the music and arranged it. He and Masaki played together in a previous band, and formed Pride of mind together. Fukuyama-san was apparently the originator of Pride of mind's musical style, being the only one of the trio originally acquainted with the music of the 1980s. Atsushi is officially listed on the "Systems of Romance" album as playing guitar and keyboard. Little more is known about him. He is known to have been friends with Kozi of Malice Mizer, and played in a session band called "BRAND NEW LOVER" with him at the "Higeki no bansan" event on 11/8/1996. 8 years later, Fukuyama-san reappeared again in the credits of Kozi's solo single "Memento", released on 12/1/2004. Atsushi also had a solo unit at some point pre-1996, which released one demo tape, "LANDSCAPE".
