i think its the one guitar dedicated to that weird beat that i don't like. oh and bands like the suicide machines that sound the same on every track.

Nothing odd about that at all. I strongly dislike reggae, but love 2nd and 3rd wave ska. It's the emotion behind the music, rather than the mechanics of where the beat is. To me, reggae feels lethargic and passive, while (newer) ska feels aggressive and energetic. That's what I like in music.
