In this letter, we show that the formulae of Bray and Moore for the average logarithm of the number of metastable states in spin glasses can be obtained by calculating the partition function with $m$ coupled replicas with the symmetry among these explicitly broken according to a generalization of the `two-group' ansatz. This equivalence allows us to find solutions of the BM equations where the lower `band-edge' free energy equals the standard static free energy. We present these results for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, but we expect them to apply to all mean-field spin glasses.
