Funny metal sound when reversing

I was reversing out of the parking lot at the mall today and while I was reversing, it sounded like metal was clunking around when I stepped on the gas. I looked under the rear of my car and there's no visual of loose metal.

Its usually uneven wear on the rear brake pads vibrating on the rotor. Change the pads and see if it goes away.

oh wow...i have my pad and rotor from the right rear that i had to replace....soooooooo fucked up. it sounded like a loud grinding machine when braking. if youve ever heard a rotor being cut, thats what it sounded like. if thats the case, check out your pads and rotrs ASAP. id take some pictures but i dont know if they will show the insane gaps in the rotor.

edit: i just took 3 pics of the pad. im gonna post them on my cardomain site tomorrow
