Just guessing since you don't describe the noise at all, the pads may be dragging some and vibrating in the caliper. It could be caused by an improperly adjusted parkling brake (most likely), sticking piston or a pad that is too loose in the caliper. Some pads just make more noise than others due to pad composition or poor quality control .
