Default Squeeking when I brake???

Okay this sounds like a stupid question, but whatever. Well, when I brake I hear like this metal to metal scrapping sound. It can't be my pads cause I just changed them out. Also, when I brake my Anti brakes feel like they're gonna break down. It feels weird like the car is gonna stall or something. I guess it sounds like.... " grind grind grind squeeeeellll." Can anyone help me? What the hell is wrong with my baby???

If you had your brakes installed somewhere take it back, one of your calipers may not be on correctly. Also, Onetime I had a small rock jammed between my caliper and the rotor, made one hell of a squeal.

Your brakes might be dragging, causing the rotors and pads to overheat. Your pads crystalize and that is the sort of sound you get. You can also tell if you start to make grooves into the rotor.

or maybe antisqueal wasn't used when the new pads were installed
did you bed in the pads properly?
