But me a dianasor
I am a big fan of poo poo like Alkaline Trio's (HAR HAR EMO) OLD stuff, such as Goddammit. I'm having a fairly hard time finding similar artists, and would appreciate a little input here. I am familiar with a few allegedly similar artists such as the Maine and Against Me!

Basically, can someone kindly point me towards some rough-sounding punk with darker themes? (yes, I am aware of the Misfits. :frog: )

going off "rough sounding punk w/ dark themes":

this is a little confusing because the misfits aren't rough sounding at all, very melodic, but maybe you'd like naked raygun? or the germs, subhumans (uk), the effigies, hot snakes, the mummies, flipper? I'm just spitballing here.

I suppose I probably mainly thinking of the theme part of it and the Misfits came to mind. I see now how that is confusing. Thank you though, I will check all of these bands out!

Those are all great bands (some of my favorites, in fact) and I recommend all of them, but I think you'd probably take more to bands like The Lawrence Arms, Jawbreaker, Avail, Hot Water Music, and Dillinger Four.
I was familiar with avail and the Lawrence arms and had heard of Jawbreaker but had no idea they were so good. Hot Water music is very close and the Dillinger Four has a sound that I really dig. Many thanks man.
