Rancid's "Life Won't Wait" is my favorite album....ever, pretty much, so I can't really agree.
Plus, excellent Reel Big Fish releases, Nirvana(just the unplugged, really), 2 good records from Bad Religion, Pennywise....the list goes on. Just keep away from pop rap and post grunge, you'll catch an infection.
The Clash didn't do anything in the 90s....they broke up in I'd say 85 or something.
Joe Strummer, their frontman, released his first album with the Mescaleros, but his next two blew that out of the water, because they kind of rank among the best albums of all time.
