But if you mean to tell me you think The Cave sounds like After the Storm or Awake My Soul...well...I don't know what to tell you. But M&S are real and they are fantastic.
I think they all do the same thing. Quiet start, build to a big explosion of sound and then simmer down. I understand a lot of songs use that formula, but all Mumford's songs seem to do it in the same way.

I listened to it five or six times before arriving at this conclusion. And seen them live twice. And it only reaffirmed my opinion that they have one song. (OK. Two. After the Storm doesn't sound like the rest.)

I'm not saying that they're bad or unlistenable. I just don't think they're anything special.
