Most 3rd wave Ska is similar but there is enough reverence to Trad Ska for it to be palatable whereas putting in some skanking guitar doesn't really make it Ska at all in my eyes.
I'm not 100% what you are saying, but I put "/Skacore" because some people do call it Skacore but most of these bands are self proclaimed Crack Rock Steady.
