Get the stuff with titles like these:
invent Acid Mothers Temple album titles!!

It can be a game, like one of those memory association games ... read that thread for exactly three minutes, then head straight to the music store and buy the closest approximation in your memory. Go home, crank up the volume, and enjoy.

Yeepers. Well, "Pink Lady Lemonade" has to be the core of any rough guide, it's their "Dark Star" (if you will). Any version but the hour-long one on Do Whatever You Want is pretty damned great (though arguably all the live takes I've seen are even better).

My personal favorite AMT album is La Novia.
Troubador's from Another Heavenly World is a great droney, mellow album.
Live in Japan is the best live one that I have heard.
That "Do Whatever You Want" box is a pretty good primer.

Listen to Ghost or High Rise or Subvert Blaze instead.

La Novia is a favorite of mine as well. Check that one out. If you like it, Mantra of Love is in a similar vein.
