Cashmere Noose (stylized in all lowercase) is the fifth EP by American singer Blackbear. It was released on August 4, 2016 exclusively on SoundCloud through his independent record label Beartrap. The name and cover art stem from the product of the same name sold by Enfants Riches Déprimés.[1] The deluxe edition of the EP was released to all other streaming services on November 11, 2016 with extra tracks "Flirt Right Back" and "Wanderlust" while excluding "Spent All My Money On Rick Owens Cargo Pants" featuring Mod Sun and "Princess Complex", however the former was included on Mod Sun's second album Movie as "Spent All My Money..." featuring Blackbear. Only one single, "Wanderlust", was released alongside a lyric video on YouTube on January 13, 2017.[2]
