Question Noise from engine

I am having a problem with my car, there seems to be a loud squealing noise coming from the engine bay. Whenever the car is cold it makes this noise, plus it only happens when I press the gas. What is wrong with my car?! I think it might be a pulley or something, it's really loud.

double check the tension on the belts if they are new.
