Do those brake pads utilize an external "low pad warning" "screecher"?
By screecher I mean a piece of metal which is bent and riveted on to the pad--this piece of metal contacts the rotor when the pad is low, and screeches.
On another car, I've seen this piece of metal snap and somehow it was screeching early, before pad replacement was due.
If not I recommend you use some of the black sticky goo ("brake pad grease") that's meant to be spread onto the rear of the backing plate; that should silence your pads, it reduces vibrations which can make the pads sing.
Another thought--maybe some foreign material got lodged in between the rotor and the brake pad?
good luck,
Jason
