Sundström was born in Falun, Dalarna County. During his youth, he played mainly in black and death metal bands.[3] In 1999, he founded Sabaton with Joakim Brodén. Shortly after, Oskar Montelius joined the band. Concerning his role in Sabaton, he stated in an interview with metalheadspotted.com: "I do a lot of stuff that is necessary for the band as manager."[2]
Before Sabaton became a professional band, Sundström worked for two years "as a manager of a big company". His management office, as well as the band's studio, are based in Falun.[4]
Sundström has one sister.[2] His main musical influences are Twisted Sister, especially Dee Snider, as well as Skid Row.[5][4] He speaks of Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Guns N' Roses, Raubtier, Skid Row and Sabaton as his favourite bands.[1] In the early years of Sabaton, Sundström set up the pyrotechnics for the Sabaton live shows by himself, as he is a trained pyrotechnician.[6]
