Weird noises coming from front brakes, WTF?

Ok, so I was turning into a friends house today and noticed a weird creaking sound from my brakes when they get pushed down hard. I know I have at least 1 warped rotor (I'm getting brembo blanks soon), but would that make my brakes sound like that? If not that, what could it be?

How wore down are your pads? It could be the wear sensor hitting the rotor.

The warped rotors on my GSR did that.. If I mash the brake pedal, the high spots in the rotor would scrape a chunk of the pad off and cause a scraping sound..
