could it be build up of brake dust?
warped discs?

if discs are old and pads are new, then theres a "lip arount the edge of the disc, this catches the pads when you're not braking and you get a squeal... either that or one of your calipers aint workin right

discs r also brand new, could the pad still be carching the edge of the disc.
also long does it take to bed in, i just wouldnt have thought that after time the squeek will go as they r new
