On her first record album free of �Hannah Montana� ties, the 15-year-old Disney star doesn�t miss a beat. She belts the right notes at the right times, bolstered by edgy pop-punk production that offsets an otherwise bubblegum background. The songs ar catchy, even captivating. When the claim track opens with �Every week�s the same, stuck in school, so lame,� you don�t anticipate an geographic expedition of life�s imponderables. But a string of pseudo-tortured tracks around breakups injects a contrived, music-by-numbers feel. Hard to believe a celebrity teen feels such pain. Download: �Full Circle.�
