Default Wheels screeching

I had a screeching noise coming from my brakes this week. I figured it was time to change out the brake pads. The pads were very low but no metal was through yet. I changed them out but the screeching is still there. The rotors looked to be in good condition. Thoughts on what it could be?

Are you sure that you blew out all of the metallic dust and debris left around where your brakes are? My mom has drum brakes on her minivan and the shop she was going to couldnt deduct that one....might be why they are out of business now. Anywho, she was just building up tons and tons of dust and I cleaned it all out real good and it went away. Dont use brake cleaner on asphalt driveways, will eat it up
