Default Noise from left front wheel

Ok, I changed the front rotors on my '92 civic hb dx. I also re-lubed the sliders too. I torqued the bolts to spec. This was about 2 weeks ago. The rotors were freshly machined.

The sound from the left front wheel sounds like the brake pads are sticking. It occurs at low speed when I press the brakes hard enough. When the car moves from the stop, I hear it again.

I'm thinking the anti-seize compound I used is no good or the brake pads are sticking or worse yet the 2 caliper bracket bolts may have come loose (which I doubt). I recall torquing the caliper bracket bolts to 80ftlbs. Any thoughts?
