Apocalypse is a bit easier and lighter in tone than traditional SMT, but I still would recommend trying IV to understand the setting.
Devil Survivor 1 and 2 are fantastic, and DS2 Record Breaker is my favorite entry in the SMT series (including the Persona franchise). These games are also a bit lighter in tone, though still have some heavy moments. Gameplay is a bit different though.
I suppose it depends which aspect of the game appeals to you. Do you like the macabre tone? The story? Gameplay?
